The second in a two-part premium summer fruit afternoon tea series is coming to TAVERN by the green, the New York-style restaurant on the second floor of The Strings Omotesando in Kita-Aoyama, Tokyo. Following the first pairing of peach and mango, the "Precious Summer Peach & Shine Muscat Afternoon Tea" runs from August 19 (Wednesday) to September 30 (Wednesday), 2026. Guests can enjoy an elegant seasonal menu while gazing out at the shimmering zelkova-lined boulevard of Omotesando.
Peach-Centered Sweets Throughout the Run
Both the first and second phases share four peach-forward sweets on the stand. A layered glass dessert stacks a light panna cotta with sweet peach jelly, smooth cream, and juicy peach compote. Alongside it are a velvety pink peach mousse, a peach cake with peach-flavored whipped cream and fresh peach fruit, and a homemade scone with a delicate peach fragrance.
Phase 2: Shine Muscat Additions from August 19
From August 19, three Shine Muscat creations join the peach selection: a Shine Muscat tart, a Shine Muscat shortcake, and a macaron filled with two whole Shine Muscat grapes. The vivid emerald green of the Shine Muscat paired with the elegant pink of the peach sweets creates a striking seasonal contrast that elegantly marks the close of summer.
Savories, Salad, and Soup
Three seasonal savories are included: a smooth corn mousse with crispy bacon and black pepper; a rice croquette with spicy salsa sauce; and a mini croissant sandwich with prosciutto, bocconcini, gribiche sauce, and balsamic cream. A Shine Muscat and ceviche cocktail salad with red peach and yogurt dressing rounds out the meal along with a vibrant beet vichyssoise garnished with cucumber and shrimp brunoise. On weekdays, the salad is presented with a tomato crystal aspic for an especially refined presentation.
Optional Add-Ons
Special Dessert: Eton Mess
For Phase 2, the Eton Mess features Shine Muscat as the star ingredient, layering crispy meringue with rich custard cream and light fromage whipped cream, then finishing with a crunchy crumble topping for textural contrast.
Special Drinks
Two optional drinks complement the afternoon tea: a Peach & Muscat Mimosa — a Champagne cocktail infused with the flavors of peach and muscat — and a Peach & Muscat Fruit Iced Tea, which blends the rich sweetness of peach with the refreshing aroma of muscat.
The standard drink menu includes 16 varieties available for unlimited refills, featuring selections from TWG Tea, the Singapore-founded luxury tea brand, alongside The Strings Omotesando's own original blend coffee.
