Cool vids! My personal favorite is testing room on the 2nd floor of draft land, which is where they experiment all the different on tap cocktails.

These videos are amazing. Its informative and has a slick presentation. Your choice of bgm is perfect, your voice is a clam and friendly narration, and the footage presented shows the area, the bar, and the bartenders. "Absolute cinema" Thanks for all your hard work!

Sublime music 👍

Your taste in music is as good as your taste in cocktails.

Just binged all your videos. Love the music vibes and the commentary.

You started at the best bar in Japan in my opinion. Nakaichi is a genius. He also helped me through some hard times after some heartbreak. Bibleclub is actually frequented by a lot of tokyoite natives especially those in the industry. I proposed to my gf here during COVID. Nayuta is THE Osaka cocktail bar. Very close friends. Very special bar for me. Tom and Jerry is by far my favorite classic bar in Japan. Upstairs is run by my best friend so I won't make any comments. Except he's ugly. You ran into all of my friends and I'm so happy you got to experience it. :)

Jake, just to know, what's the next thing you would put all the money in the world? XD

Hey, this was really well-made and I really appreciate you spending the time to do this

i visited most of this bar , thanks for the video

this channel is a sleeper, i love your editing and narratives, going to visit Osaka next week and will definitely try out some of these bars!

Having been there... Benfiddich really is worth the hype!

dude the editing style and cinematography is one of a kind, with the perfect descriptions and everything, youre the goat

For third video, you should really visit Oriental Elixir. It's right across from Gibson.

There was a jazz bar called Windjammer in Yokohama that just closed after 52 years...

Thanks

Love your videos! My husband and I enjoy hearing about all the cool places to try when we are next in Japan. Any chance you’ll be heading south like to Kyushu? Specifically Fukuoka or Kumamoto? Heard there maybe some interesting bars that way.

If I ever see you in a bar we're gonna nerd out so hard

You have a new subscriber here.

Recently found your channel and absolutely love the videos and your style. Wondering since you mention most Japanese bars require a conversation with the bartender to select the drink, do most of the bartenders at these places speak English? Would someone ever have trouble ordering? Sorry if thats an ignorant question - looking to make it to Japan next year and have heard you shouldn’t expect people to speak English like you can in some other countries around the world.

Thank for making such great content, I just subbed and am excited to watch all your other videos!

I took a trip to Japan last year in May and used the Top 50 Bars in Asia list as a guideline while traveling and ended up giving a few of these bars a try. I tried out SG Club (Guzzle), Bar Benfiddich, memento mori, and Bar Trench. Between the four, Bar Trench ended up being my personal favorite and the only one I visited twice (time was scarce, otherwise I probably would've revisited all four).

I can not believe bar'd was once on the asia's best bars list. Its style is far from the standards of the list in 2023 and 2024. And the owner is very low-key on the SNS, while the list always prefers 'international' bar. It is surprising.

Bro you just googled cocktail bars in Singapore. What a joke

your just too good at making videos ❤ love your content, please never stop making TH-cam videos.

While I admired the craft and passion of Japanese bartenders when I was in Tokyo a few years back…most places are just not places I want to spend a lot of time in. Too serious and stuffy. I realize that’s a cultural thing but here in Ireland half of the enjoyment of bars is the atmosphere and the fact that most bartenders are easy going.

Bar leone is no. 1 now 👍🏻 GOOD JOB GUESSING THAT 👏

AWWW YEEEH

once again, excellent video and wonderful spots (^_^)

I'm here for the travel vlogger hate.

Another awesome video, man!

Superb

Jake, I love your videos. It is vacation time, and I'm revisiting many of them. And suddenly, this. You are such a freak! You make me think of my father looking for the 1973 edition of a random book in every bookshop of Barcelona... Coming back to Bar D one week later? What? Really? Thank for doing it for us. Really, thanks for your videos. I love them

Great stuff!! 👍🏻

Hi Jake, will you be visiting Hokkaido cities for their bars? I would very much look forward to it!

What's good my fellow degenerates! This was originally supposed to be 2 videos but there wasn't really enough content, plus the themes were super similar, so I combined it into one mega video and I think that was for the best. One more video and then Season 2 is complete! Do your boy a favour and like the video and subscribe (and watch the video on repeat for 800 days). See you next in: Kyoto!

Hopefully when my son is old enough for me to leave at home, I’ll manage to get the mrs out to one or two of these!

Can you please explain what are we seeing at 0:58? What's for sale?

Holy cow, you nailed some pretty good bars here in KL. And a few I didn’t even know, so now I’ll be heading there. Thanks, superb content and well shot. Thanks and cheers!

Excited for this! The first video I watched from you was exploring noodles and bars in Korea. My husband and I are both going to Korea and Japan, your videos are so helpful. We're excited to see some of the bars you featured. Everything you put out is so well thought out and so much detail.. We know exactly what we want to order, from your videos. We related to your Korea video so much are also some big gamers and one of the reason for our love for Korea as well:). We can't wait to try these bars!

Beautifully crafted video.

Gonna be looking for some cigar bars in October.

Revisiting this masterpiece

No you didn't.
