If three quarters of the drink is the mixer, mix with the best. Fever Tree began in 2003 with one simple premise—to create a premium mixer that complements the world’s finest spirits. Our story is about going to the ends of the earth in pursuit of the finest, naturally sourced ingredients. No artificial flavours or sweeteners are used. Our mission is to bring quality, flavour and choice back to mixers. In Japan there are six products available: Elderflower Tonic Water, Mediterranean Tonic Water, Indian Tonic Water, Ginger Ale, Ginger Beer and Soda Water. 

Fever Tree is now available to purchase online on Amazon or Rakuten, department stores such as Isetan, and of course local liquor shops.

It’s time to celebrate the beauty of beginnings with our collection. Lily & Magnolia Blossom is a fresh, white floral fragrance, beautifully capturing a Cornish woodland and its enchanting wildflowers. Crisp, luscious and succulent, you’ll find notes of creamy magnolia mingling with dewy lily of the valley and warm sandalwood.

 

COSTA COFFEE

The Costa Coffee story started over 50 years ago in London with two Italian brothers, Sergio and Bruno Costa. A lot has changed since then, but their values and commitment to crafting the finest quality coffee hasn’t. What started as the UK’s favourite coffee shop is currently operating across 41 countries, and now they are bringing their premium coffee to Japan. 

The Costa Coffee Japan team is preparing for their imminent national brand launch with PET bottled coffee. So far the brand has been introduced in Tokyo mainly through countertop machines, Costa Express machines, food trucks and pop up stores. 

Visit the pop up shop in Ginza Loft, on the first floor of Loft Foodlab.
Open every day at 11am–8pm for delicious handcrafted coffee.

CATERHAM CARS

Penned by Lotus founder Colin Chapman in 1957, the Super Seven models have been in continuous production at Caterham Cars since 1973. The latter company was purchased outright by Japanese car dealer giant VT Holdings Co., Ltd. in April. They hope to build on the success of the Caterham Seven 160; the first foreign-built car designed specifically to meet Japanese mini-car specifications. As exhaust emission laws become more stringent around the world, surely a Caterham “sEVen” must feature in the future of this new UK–Japan partnership.
