From early dinner time to late at night.
The music bar "NÜCHI by WPÜ" (Makishi, Naha City, Okinawa), operated by Wonder Powered You Inc., will revamp its food menu and cocktail lineup starting April 1, 2026, and simultaneously change its opening hours to start at 17:00. Centered around respect for prefectural ingredients, we will introduce a new food menu inspired by the essence of Asia, and also deliver a newly created signature cocktail lineup that combines materials unique to Okinawa with spirits from around the world. It will evolve into a space where you can deeply experience NÜCHI's music, food, and alcohol starting from dinner time.
From the place where Okinawa's land and creators' work intersect.
NÜCHI's food is born from the place where Okinawan ingredients and producers' work intersect. "TESIO" at Koza Gate 2, "Cheese Shop" in Naha, and the grocery "HINETTERY" inside TESIO — items carefully made at each of these places were reconstructed within the context of the bar NÜCHI. Based on ingredients nurtured by Okinawa's land, such as prefectural wagyu beef jerky, kuruma prawn ajillo, and medicinal hummus kneaded with fuchiba (mugwort), we have layered Asian cooking techniques and the essence of fermentation and aging. Similarly for cocktails, we have completely updated our signature lineup by combining materials unique to Okinawa, such as awamori, habu sake, long pepper (hihatsumodoki), and inamuduchi miso, with global spirits. Even within the glass, the memories and playfulness of this island reside. NÜCHI aims to remain a place where cocktails, music, and the night brought by food each add another layer of depth.

12 Signatures Where Island Ingredients and Global Spirits Intersect
Awamori, habu sake, long pepper, inamuduchi miso — centering around materials unique to Okinawa, we are introducing 12 signature cocktails that cross them with global spirits like mezcal, gin, and pisco. From spicy to tropical and dessert types, different memories of Okinawa reside in each glass. We have also put the ingredients and playfulness of this island into the glass.
Revamped Signature Cocktails
Pipachi
A refreshing and unique drink where the depth of spices quietly spreads. The botanicals of the gin are layered with the subtle spiciness of the long pepper and the fragrance of cardamom and fennel, finished lightly with soda. The nigana garnish tightens the lingering bitterness and aroma.
Ramune
A Japanese-style sparkling cocktail that makes you feel somewhat nostalgic. The soft umami of awamori overlaps with the tingling stimulation of sansho pepper and the refreshing acidity of green plum, bouncing lightly with soda. The visual, like an ice confection, represents playfulness.
