JW Marriott Hotel Nara (Location: 1-1-1 Sanjo-Oji, Nara City, Nara Prefecture) will offer a limited-time 'Muscat Afternoon Tea' starting Wednesday, July 1, 2026, at its first-floor lounge and bar, 'Flying Stag.' The menu features fresh muscat grapes as the star, presented in a refreshing green color palette reminiscent of an early summer garden.

This afternoon tea features five sweets and five savory items, skillfully combining seasonal, glistening muscat grapes with refreshing early summer ingredients such as fromage blanc, elderflower, and apricot. The three-tiered stand will display items like pale green, translucent jellies and botanically inspired delicacies, offering an elegant tea time experience akin to strolling through a lush garden.

Sweets include the 'Muscat Macaron,' featuring juicy grape juice and elegant cream sandwiched between crispy pastry; the 'Fromage Blanc and Muscat Mousse,' which balances smooth richness with refreshing acidity; and the 'Muscat Mille-Feuille Tartlet,' where fragrant tart and custard highlight the fruit's freshness. The 'Elderflower Blancmange with Grape Jelly,' served in a cool glass, is a perfect early summer dessert with a smooth texture and floral botanical aroma.

Savory items include bold arrangements of fresh fruit, such as the 'Muscat and Prosciutto Mini Dog' with a hint of mint, and the 'White Fish Sashimi Marinated with Muscat Salsa Verde,' served in a cool glass vessel. Guests can enjoy a luxurious blend of sweet, salty, and acidic flavors crafted by the chef.

Two types of scones are provided: 'Lemon and Elderflower Scone' and 'Raisin and Cashew Nut Scone.'

Spend a relaxing early summer afternoon wrapped in refreshing green colors at the JW Marriott Hotel Nara.
