London outside. Tokyo down the stairs. Hidden beneath ROKA, Shochu is the sort of underground bar that makes you feel like you’ve stumbled into a little backstreet drinking den in Japan. Low lighting, Japanese spirits and cocktails that deserve your full attention. Forget your usual gin and tonic. This is the place to try something a little different. And once you’re down there, there’s really no rush to come back up.

Our Round: A Green-tini for the matcha lovers, an Apple & Barley for something crisp and refreshing, and an Okushi San if you’re feeling adventurous.
