- Stare into viewers soul while shaking well

Don’t forget, add “enough” tonic water
I confess my sins every time he shakes his drinks and an egg so well

He's not just a bartender, he's also known to give quests to persons of interest.
Those in the Catherine/Persona games .
What does that mean, "give guests to persons of interest"?
@@Mikyda3 "quests". Video game humor....

In addition to all the comments about his artistic finesse- can we just appreciate that the man made Campari from scratch?! I kept wondering where the bottle is, and then realised he's just used the herbs to make it! This is different level alchemy.

I know this is really irrelevant and late of me to comment but thank you for taking the time out to put time stamps with the title of the types of drinks they are😩😫🙌🏽
This needs to be pinned to the top
I wonder if a Smokey Corpse Reviver no. 1 exists?
What the hell is a smokey corpse reviver no.2, is he trying to reincarnate dead people💀
The name of the last drink though 💀
This guy doesn't make drinks, he makes elixirs.

I feel like this man would be the bartender at the Restaurant at the End of the Universe.
I love this comment so much, I would love to buy you a bowl of petunias!
Would be a nice place for a drink if anyone's still around.
I’d be the dishwasher at that restaurant

In all seriousness it was so awe-inspiring to see Kayama-san so meticulous with every part of his craft, right down to his subtle mannerisms. Wonderful to see.
I respect a man that gives up part of their life to master a skill. I am amazed
I can't be the only one to laugh at the gas cylinder popping out and completely contrasting the entire scenario
I immediately tensed up and thought of the scenes from No Country for Old Men.
I liked it when he pulled out a huge daikon radish and then they just faded into a new recipe like that was the whole drink.
Definitely not! I recognized what he intended to do immediately but at the same time is was just so bizarre.
it was certainly out of place
that scene would be perfect in a movie with Leslie Nielsen😂
I think the camera man was in a different genre before this.
( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
Wait what why
@@eachone9220 porn
Same with the guy who did the soundtrack lol
Idk what porn you're watching but this is better camera work than anything I've seen there lol
He’s not just a bartender, he’s the guy who makes health potions for all the games.
This was 38 minutes of pure Joy, elegance and perfection the video cuts on his focused eyes were mind popping. Thumbs up for the production.
I'll admit I laughed when he pulled that big ass carbonation tank out from under the counter.
And you did not laugh when he pulled that long ass radish?! @26:25
You’re extremely brave for admitting this. Thank you
I thought he was going to blow up the place.
Remember the game at the arcades? Time Crisis? Remember when they would say "MACHINE GUN" when you stepped on the foot pedal? Now imagine he pulled that big ass thing out and a voice from nowhere said, "CARBON TANNNNK"
@vladslickbartender why don't you give him your most expensive but useless tool lol
Just had the pleasure of actually visiting this place. It’s called Ben Fiddich and the drinks are fantastic. A bit pricy but well worth it for the experience and the product. Kayama-San was not working last night but all the workers there are just as careful and elegant. Truly master craft bar tending.
Edit: My mistake, I went to the downstairs bar B&F, also run by Kayama-san that night, but went up the 9th floor to Ben Fidditch the following week.
That's so cool. I miss japan, so I'll definitely check it out and make sure Kayama San is working 💙
How much of a price do we talk here? Never been to a bar and never been to a deluxe bar either, what would any of those drinks cost? Asking out of curiosity
@@V-DtaJ $15-$20 ish
I mean, expensive is relative. I've paid $17 for a margarita that was nothing but premade store-bought margarita mix, ice, and tequila. This man is creating legit art. Mf made rosemary soda water from scratch hahaha I'd definitely pay $20 for something this magnificent! Maybe not every day, but like once in a while for sure.
I've had 17 dollar margaritas at a local theater. 25 in Vegas. Pretty good but I would love to experience drinks from this place!
I started cracking up at 2:42. Wasn't quite expecting that device...
I thought he brought out a nuclear warhead
@@coldstone22 Was either that or his personal LexSteele warhead for just such an occasion...
This is like watching a magician performing in slow motion. SUCH a pleasure. Thank you.
He can also prepare something to poison your enemies.
Easily
God tier comment, ruined my relaxation but made my night
And you probably accidentally drinking it first because of how soothing watching him prepares it.
That's what I was going to say. He could be killing you and you wouldn't know it.
the Kremlin's bartender
This seems more like alchemy than bar tending.
I mean making infused liquor is basically alchemy. This guy’s essentially just cutting out the middle man between himself and the distiller by making his own infusions and liqueurs for his cocktails
Alchemy is life
they are pretty much the same thing.
club soda, dried herbs, giant’s toe, fire salts
@@we-must-live this is so funny!
Mechanical movements like oiled clockwork, elegant like a dancer, precise and smooth like a well-made manuscript, yet filled with energy and momentum. A glass filled till the border. No more, no less. And that is what makes it amazing.
Probably some of the most mesmerizing ASMR I’ve personally experienced, and I’ve watched and listened to a lot lol
Fells like I'm meeting an important NPC from the Yakuza games
Then you see.him at the end of the game and realise he was the boss all along
Another one that thinks The same XD
I’ve been sober for 8 years, but I’ll be honest: if this man presented me with one of these works of art, I’d have to drink it out of straight up respect. This man isn’t a bartender, he’s a master craftsman.
Don’t do it!
@@sunandsteelMN duality
Congratulations on your 8 years!
Why is it that recovered alcoholics cannot fathom moderation?
Shouldn't be watching cocktail videos if you're sober bud. Keep giving yourself little allowances like this and before you know it you'll be back on the bottle
I can't get enough of this video, it's amazing. I wish they would make more videos like this, with updated recipes. Would be worth a view. Two thumbs up.
I visited him years ago at his bar. Best experience I had in Japan, I can’t wait to go back when I can. I had some of these drinks (Forest Cocktail and the Egg Drop Matcha one), and his entire team are very nice and professional. ☺️
Do you have to make a reservation to go to his bar?
@@MDZane-YT : I don’t 100% remember, but I don’t think you necessarily need to, but it would be wise to call them and check. The bar is quite small (I would say maybe fits 15-20ish people?) but it never felt crowded or rushed. While I was there, I did see people come and go, so yeah. Good luck!
No but you need to be a millionaire to drink there
@@jayluiz9709 No, you do not, and the fact that you said that is pretty ignorant. When I went in 2018, his drinks were in very reasonable at 18-20 USD.
Though every aspect of this video is quality, I find his small, repeated mannerisms to be the most satisfying. The way he agitates the shakers, the twirl of the spoon into the water, how he twists the bottles and presents the glasses. It is all ritual. Excellence, then, is not an act, but a habit.
I like the idea of soaking the bar spoon so he can use the honey straight.
his movements are equally relaxing to the sounds… puts me right to sleep
Interesting that you find them so relaxing. I love cocktails and these all look so delicious but I find those same little mannerisms incredibly irritating
It’s the slo-mo smolder that makes me swoon 🫠🥰
If there’s a skill or a craft, no doubt someone in Japan is doing it to a painstaking level
The culture / people is different there. If I understand correctly, it's admirable to choose a skill or profession, stick to it your entire life and always striving to be better and improve every day. If you have that sort of culture, and those sort of ambitious people, you'll end up with people like this bartender here.
@@fredrikbystrom7380 exactly. I saw a video about a guy whose whole livelihood is making shears for cutting bonzai trees. He like the only one left who makes them and they cost something like $15,000 a pair.
@@Dunkaroos248 I've seen that video as well. There's a saying in my country: no matter how good you think you are at something, there's always a Japanese person that's better at it
@@fredrikbystrom7380 This is a big reason why Japan started to make the best quality products over the years, from whiskey and now to cigars. Quality over quantity.
@@joshspace99 I thought a Cuban cigar was the highest quality?
He moves like water moves; graceful, yet full of intent.
Great to see someone who excels in their craft and takes pride in their work smiling all the way )
This is a man who respects, has perfected and enjoys his craft. I never get sick of watching these...
Imagine if you just want a pint and you're stood behind someone that's just ordered 4/5 of these cocktails 💀
He makes them faster when he's on the clock and there's likely more than one bartender.
@@richman360 And you don't know what a joke looks like apparently...
I doubt bars he works in serve pints
Hahaha I was literally thinking this. 🤣🤣

This video is amazing! The Quality of the video, the sounds, the Barkeeper and his moves! Really amazing work, we need more! Keep up 💯👏
I know to many this might look like pretentious and over exaggerated but in the bartending community people like him, Marian Beke, Simone Caporale (just to name a few) are complete genius and no different to Michelin star Chefs . The work ,study and dedication they have put into this profession in mind blowing. Especially in Japan being a bartender is seen as a honourable profession and the making of each single cocktail is treated as a ceremonial and unique experience. I really invite anyone to dig into the mixology world
Love the lil change in the soundtrack when he's shaking and stares directly at the camera for just a second
I don't know about you guys...but this is so beautiful I swear I'm in tears.
The passion you express by doing this is amazing.
You spread emotions without any words.
That's art in it's purest form,I'm so happy I came across you!
Gives one goosebumps. The attention to the detail in the experience. Watching your drink be made is half of the experience. Inspiring!
I don’t know whether I should be impressed by the cameraman’s skills or concerned as to his possible previous profession
what previous profession?
LMAO
The sensual tugging of the coc... I mean, the rigorous shaking of the drinks... *Sigh!*
The sudden abort after he grabs and starts grating in his daikon…well, that hit to close to the previous genre.
The music fits…
Such elegance, the way he flows as he works is so mesmerizing. Makes me wanna sit down and just enjoy my drink
I'd guzzle that shit down in no time just so i can order another one and watch
It's definitely amazing to watch. There's a certain amount of dedication to process & an unmatched level of grace used by those this skilled in their craft that holds the standard of bar none.
I'm curious to know how many bartenders are on staff on a busy night because I can't imagine just one bartender being able to accomodate for large, intricate drink orders while still maintaining that level of dedication to process & doing it as efficiently while having to go 2 to 3 times as quick to make drinks that require multiple steps and/or specific garnishments. One thing for certain this gentleman takes bartending to a whole new level of art form & is fascinating to watch his skills in progress.❤Thank you for sharing this.
Beautiful methodical skill and presentations. Amazing video and audio capture as well.
Damn this brings me back when I was stationed in Japan and there was a bar in Hiroshima that had just one guy it was a tiny hole in the wall kind of place but it was classy and the guy always had a white tux made the best drinks always gave some free snacks and even when it was raining one day the barkeep gave me and my friend a free umbrella… he didn’t speak any English but he treated us like royalty in a country which often when it comes to nice/classy places are quick to throw up the “no gaijin” I miss that place
Hope he's doing alright, sounds like a great guy.
They don't allow other races?
@@kamakhyagatekanu just in some places in japan people don't tend to accept foreigners as willingly as other parts. Really depends on your location though as some places in japan are more than lovely to foreigners
@@milk-qh5zz Oh, got it. Thanks 👍
@@kamakhyagatekanu Given how foreigners dropped 2 massive bombs on their country...yeah i think they can be a bit suspicious.
Came for the asmr, stayed because it actually looks like an interesting process.
One of the best asmr videos out there ❤
Watching this to go to sleep, but I am always woken up whenever he stares deep into my soul.
This guy literally had me laughing so hard at times...how the whole thing can go into adult video territory with the insinuations. Mr. Kayama is a true performer
You can tell this is a man who absolutely loves what he does and sees it as a form of art (it definitely is). So much time spent on each drink to perfect them.
自分はアルコールアレルギーで、お酒を飲むと命の危機に陥ってしまいます。幸いにもお酒が飲みたい!とはこれまであまり思ったことがないのですが、この動画を見てお酒って美味しそうと純粋に感じました。そして飲んで堪能するは勿論ですが、目で見て音を聞いて愉しむ。味や香り以外にも五感で堪能出来るものだと思いました。
素晴らしい動画ありがとうございました。
I dont drink anymore but watching this man make cocktails is oddly soothing.
My friends, we are bearing witness to a grandmaster at work, an individual who has mastered his craft by performing and practicing it for many years. Now he can mix drinks with a cool, suave demeanor, that you see in the likes of those who have truly reached the pinnacle of their profession, truly a wonderful sight to behold.
Bro shut up
Hey guys, he's got a point, can you do that? And more importantly, can you make it look like an opera performance mixed with a background scene in James bond like this man does
yeah he's still just a bartender he's not splitting the atom
@@toddfongemie9441 yeah didn't say he was, just said it's an impressive skill that he's clearly spent a lot of time perfecting, you don't need to invent some grand thing to do something amazing, or think up some amazing concept, you just gotta work till it becomes natural, and that guys a natural, just feel he deserves a little praise, trying to spread positivity and stuff to those who work hard, not tryna call him a Genius, just a well-honed master of his selected skill that is amazing to watch in action
the people tryna dog on him the same ones who are like 21+ still at mcdonalds dont take their heat seriously LOL
“So. They tell me you’re Japan’s greatest bartender.”
“That’s what they say.”
“Pint of lager please pal.”
"And while you're at it, get that Gordon Ramsey fella to fetch me a packet of salt and vinegar crisps!"
And stick channel 4 racing on the tele will you. Chop chop!
“Nah, I’ll just get some water.”
I'm guessing this place doesn't serve beer.
@@rurugby Its not a place to get a normal beer, there is no menu so its based on what you prefer and the bartender makes it for you based on your preference. Plus its super expensive and its more for experience. There are like lot of many other cheaper bars and pubs in Tokyo for that with very decent cocktails and beer selection which is good enough for both locals and foreign expats and tourists.
Bro really dropped this classic and dipped mad respect 👏
Am I the only one binging “satisfying Bartender videos” at 11:00Pm?
9:42 he looks so evil in these shots, like he’s grinding his enemy’s bones
This is what happens to those who dislike. Your bones are ground into dust, and your blood is used to make a Campari cocktail.
@@dwaterson21 Japanese Hannibal Lecter?
He probably is. Gives the drink that tangy extra something
Sinister indeed
He's the bartender in an RPG that comes up with new drinks if you give him monster parts as ingredients. He probably is grinding an enemy's bones.
Speed and efficiency. Love how quick he is but also how gentle he is with the pours and ingredients. Master bartender!
The preparation and attention to detail is amazing. I want to learn to make these signature cocktails.
I'm talking about a robust deeply sophisticated notion of hallucination. Hallucinations that are so real you cannot distinguish them from reality. Hallucinations that are so mesmerizing that... Imagine that you started imagining that you were a cocktail and you just sat there day after day after day imagining that you were a cocktail and you imagined it so much that you literally became a cocktail and you could not remember anymore that you were ever a human. That's the kind of power of imagination that I'm talking about.
Well, let me tell you, hallucinations, they're tremendous. Nobody hallucinates like me, believe me. I have the best hallucinations, the most realistic hallucinations you've ever seen. People come up to me all the time, they say, "Donald, how do you do it?" And I tell them, "It's all up here," pointing to my head. And let me tell you, when I imagine something, it becomes real. I once imagined I was the greatest president ever, and look where I am now! So, folks, never underestimate the power of imagination, because with a little imagination, anything is possible.
I'll have what this guy's smoking.
my favorite part is just how he's smiling through the whole thing. you can really tell this is his passion
This is smooooooooth, but what gets me is the way this guys works and moves his hands, as if he's doing hand ballet or something. He has skills, that's for sure.
His pleased smile the whole time is so relaxing.
This man is an artist! I really enjoyed watching him work. The attention to detail and the craftsmanship. It is nice to see tradition is still alive.
I found this extremely satisfying and peaceful to watch. A real gentleman mixing eloquent cocktails. thank you.
This team video is absolutely wonderful to make this happend. Blowing mind!
Love to watch this bartender do his job. Especially love how there is no boss over his shoulder telling him he should have prepared 5 drinks in the time it took him to prepare just 1. That is seriously that was how my old boss was, always rushing you and then complaining that you are not using flair and style as a bartender should and then insult you telling you you're no bartender but some goof that puts drinks together.
This man out here making alchemical potions.
"Hello, Potion Seller, I am going into battle and I want your strongest potions"
9:42 all your life in this man eyes.
This guy could do a bottle flip in cursive
This made me die
best comment😂
Why so low?
We have the god tier comment here
Tremendous.
dude just standing there making things and giving us a smile
Every move and expression seems well choreographed... enjoyed watching your skill🌱
The post production on this is impressive.
this without a doubt the best ever. Been lucky enough to try quite a few Cocktail bars in Tokyo, and Ben Fiddich is king. Also, I loved it once when we showed up and it was full, he sent us to his friends' tequila bar on the floor on the top floor of his building, which actually is where he himself goes to have a drink/break!!!!!!!
When hes using the shaker, that’s the look he gives his enemies while shaking their loved ones eyes in that container.
Hands down one of the best ASMR VIDEOS ever
Great to see someone who excels in their craft and takes pride in their work.
His slight tremor gives him out he's really concerned about the result! Magnificent!
If you work with your hands a lot, its not hard to develop tremors in your hands.
@@shoshoncaligula5512 but when somebody who you want to impress staring at you?
He looks happier doing his job than i'll ever be 🥲
this is like the best soothing ASMR ever
I cry laughing when he looks at the camera
not only you bro XD
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
I felt violated
He doesn’t look at the camera, he looks into our souls
@@esatmerter9901 😆😆😆😆😆
this man has an elegance and fluidity to his movements that are just as interesting and mesmerizing as the drinks he's concocting.
This guy makes cocktails look like he's brewing potions and it's amazing to watch.
The bartender is not making a drink, he has studied the ancient ways of alchemy to make the elixir of life.
This will always remain my favorite video.This guy is truly a master of his profession.
Love this unique amsr I stumbled upon. New SUB LOVE 😎
My guy is so skilled at his job that they gave him a cutscene for when he works the shaker, incredible
I have fallen in love with the audio. Love the mixology sounds. I go to sleep to the audio almost every night. I can see and hear the long hours of editing in this video. It’s not easy. Well done.
Me too man, It literally becomes one of my favourite videos for every occasion, from the breakfast to the pre-sleep and sleep too, i can smell and feel the japanese oniric atmosphere in here.
He's not just a Bartender, He's THE BARTENDER
I SAW HIM ONCE MIXING WITH A FUC**IN PENCIL...
I really liked the video, thank you for sharing it :)
I never drank alcohol and I never found it as an interesting beverage, but damn this mister is an artist at what he’s doing 😊
That drink probably like 60 bucks right there,, if i told my bartender to make that drink he probably pure some jack Daniels in tomato juice and tell me to enjoy
You made me laugh so hard 😂😂😂😂
To be fair, I stopped into BF on a trip to Tokyo because of these videos back in 2019 and the drinks are like 20-25 each. Dude was working and was super nice and fun!!!
@@DearYouTNM i m a bartender but not on that level tho...beeing on that level is more than beeing a chef in the chitchen(sorry for my english)
actual facts, bartender would be like... "Son, here's some jack with some god dam canned tomato juice... enjoy."😂
@@florinraileanu4300 do bartenders serve people who drink non-alcoholic drinks?
I've been watching a lot of Bar Rescue videos lately, so it's incredibly refreshing and relaxing to see a master bartender at his craft.
Same here man, it's quite the contrast between seeing "YOU BLEW IT, CLOSE THIS BAR!" to Elegant Barman Performing Alchemy.
It's what brought me here too lol
haha same. I enjoy Bar Rescue and Jon Taffer's direct criticism against lazy bad bartending. Then this video pop up and watched it and boy I thought I was watching potion making.
He smiles at the whole process of preparing drinks. I think that's the secret ingridiant to make them taste fantastic.
This is one of the best vidz I’ve ever seen
Came for the ASMR, stayed for his performance.
I love how I can see his skill and technique form the way he opens the shaker to his precise moments with the liquor.
Or how he matches the spin out of the mixer and into the cleaning water to seem like it just flowed inside
Now those are some mixed drinks! So well done. I don’t think I’ve ever seen a drink created like this before
This man's grin is very infectious
Artistic style, relaxing sounds and an amazing video. Awesome stuff!
26:24 finally bringing out the tools to match the music and lighting I see
Ah you got me on this one! 🤣
this is awesome. what a vibe. wish I was there right now
This man is an artist who makes works of art.
He isn’t just a bartender, he’s an artist
@dogs aren't dangerous my guy I’m literally studying for my BFA. I know an art when I see it. And judging by your other comments you’re just here to start arguments with people who just wanna leave compliments in his comment suggestion.
@dogs aren't dangerous I believe that making things for either visual, oral, sensory, or auditory stimulation is art. From what I see you believe is that art is to be appreciated and observed, like a portrait on a wall or a song on your phone, and is not meant to be interacted with directly. By that logic, my line of study (Game Art) which is making assets for video games, is a craft and not an art. Correct?
@dogs aren't dangerous why not? Someone can perfect their cheese sandwich recipe after making it for 40 years professionally, and anybody who knows the basics of cooking can too. Like how a toddler and a professional can both use colored pencils. It’s both art, just on different levels
@dogs aren't dangerous WDYM by limits? I’m not trying to be a jerk I’m just hella autistic and I don’t understand what you mean.
@dogs aren't dangerous ooooooh now I get it
this man and I.....well, we love each other. You can see it in his eyes
