Tokyo Marriott Hotel in Shinagawa, Tokyo, led by General Manager Naosuke Sato, will offer the “Summer Peach Afternoon Tea” at Lounge & Dining G on the hotel’s first floor from July 1 to August 31, 2026. The afternoon tea features peaches from Yamanashi Prefecture. Set in Gotenyama, a lush area in the city where guests can feel the changing seasons, Tokyo Marriott Hotel’s summer afternoon tea will spotlight rare peaches from Marutou Farm in Yamanashi. Pastry Chef Satoru Ishiwa has created a lineup of sweets designed to showcase the fruit at its best. The hotel will select peach varieties at their peak during each serving period: early in the season, juicy and soft varieties such as Hikawa Hakuho and Hakuho will appear, while later offerings will include firmer, richly sweet varieties such as Asama Hakuto and Kawanakajima Hakuto. Around 10 peach varieties will be served over the two-month period. The menu includes eight peach-focused sweets, including a parfait scented with peach and tonka beans, a shortcake that concentrates the natural flavor of the ingredients, and a rare cheese mousse shaped like a plump peach. Four savory items, including lobster penne and peach soup, add balance and color to the experience. Guests are invited to enjoy the sweetness of summer peaches in the sunlit greenery of Gotenyama. Upper-tier sweets include a Yamanashi peach and tonka bean brûlée parfait, peach rare cheese mousse filled with Yamanashi peach, Yamanashi peach shortcake, and pink popping chocolate with peach ganache. Lower-tier sweets include Yamanashi peach tart flan, peach and raspberry sable sandwich, Yamanashi peach compote with Jersey milk blancmange, and peach scones served with guava confiture from Kochi Prefecture. Savory items include marinated octopus and Japanese moon scallop with lime, lobster and penne composition, salami and mascarpone stick sandwich, and chilled red peach soup with crispy prosciutto bread. Drinks include eight TWG Tea selections and five coffee variations, with free refills and changes of beverage. The Summer Peach Afternoon Tea will be available from July 1 to August 31, 2026, at 1:00 p.m. and 3:30 p.m. at Lounge & Dining G. The price is 7,500 yen per person, including tax and service charge. Reservations are required at least two days in advance for parties of two or more, and menu items may change. The hotel will also offer a recommended “Yukata de Afternoon Tea” plan combining yukata dressing with afternoon tea. Guests can enjoy yukata dressing and hairstyling at Yamano Aiko Beauty Salon inside the hotel, then proceed to the atrium surrounded by Gotenyama greenery for an afternoon tea featuring seasonal fruit. The plan runs from July 1 to September 30, 2026, at 11:30 a.m. and 2:00 p.m. The price is 27,300 yen per person, including yukata, obi, geta sandals, dressing, hairstyling, and afternoon tea. Full advance reservation is required seven days before the visit. Cancellations from three days before the visit will incur a 100% cancellation fee. The afternoon tea menu will change from September 1, 2026. Reservations and inquiries: Tokyo Marriott Hotel Lounge & Dining G, TEL: 03-5488-3929, URL: https://g.tokyomarriotthotel.com/afternoon-tea. Pastry Chef Satoru Ishiwa said he developed new items and updated popular past offerings so guests can enjoy carefully selected peaches from Marutou Farm even more deliciously. Each sweet incorporates detailed craftsmanship designed to bring out the full flavor of Marutou Farm’s peaches. Marutou Farm is located in Fuefuki, Yamanashi Prefecture, Japan’s top peach-producing region. Taking advantage of fertile land, the farm uses reduced-pesticide cultivation without chemical fertilizers or herbicides, while carefully managing tree shape and spacing so the fruit receives more sunlight. Its main varieties include Hikawa Hakuho, Misaka Hakuho, Hakuho, Asama Hakuto, Natsukko, Benikunika, and Kawanakajima Hakuto. The farm’s policy is to let peaches fully ripen on the tree to maximize sweetness and ship them in “best condition,” with large fruit and high sugar content. Because fully ripe peaches are delicate and the window for enjoying them at their best is short, the farm limits business partners to enable fast delivery. As a result, its peaches rarely reach the general market and are highly prized by fans. Marriott Hotels operates around 600 hotels and resorts in more than 70 countries and territories.
