Luxurious sweets featuring a colorful array of the three major summer fruits: peach, melon, and mango

Adorning the stand are 7 types of sweets that luxuriously showcase the fresh flavors of the three summer fruits. For peach, the menu includes a tart combining rich peach compote with sweet and sour lime cream, a peach pie featuring diced peaches on a crispy pie crust, and a peach rare cheesecake that pairs perfectly with refreshing rare cheese.

Furthermore, with a cake that spreads the rich flavor of mango, guests can thoroughly enjoy the tastes of summer.

Optional dessert 'Peach Melba Parfait' offering a refreshing and cool texture

As an option, the cool and refreshing glass parfait 'Peach Melba', perfect for the hot summer, will also be available. This luxurious and refreshing item beautifully layers juicy and aromatic peach compote, sweet and sour fresh berries, refreshing grapefruit jelly, crunchy granola, and cold vanilla ice cream.

Four hearty savory items made with seasonal ingredients to experience the blessings of summer with all five senses

The savories, serving as an accent between sweets, deliver four authentic dishes packed with the coolness and earthy blessings unique to summer. The lineup includes a cold corn potage featuring a smooth and gentle sweetness accented perfectly by edamame marinated in soy koji to draw out umami flavors. Also available are a tortilla roll wrapping summer vegetables and healthy soy meat with refreshing herbs, and a couscous tabbouleh salad featuring the refreshing sourness of tomatoes, the subtle saltiness of ice plant, and a fun popping texture. Additionally, a colorful bruschetta topped with savory smoked salmon, avocado, and cream cheese on a baguette adds flair. With a satisfying portion size, please enjoy the exquisite balance woven by the umami of seasonal ingredients and the sweetness of the desserts.

Three types of botanical fruit gin and tonics to cool down your summer moments

As an optional drink to further enhance the refreshing nature of the afternoon tea, we have prepared a botanical gin and tonic combining three fruits—orange, berry, and lemon—with highly aromatic non-alcoholic gin. Please spend an elegant summer tea time with this exceptionally refreshing drink.
