Why You Should Visit

For 21 days, 21 bars across Osaka's Kita district—from standing bars to izakaya—team up with the goal of pouring 21,000 glasses of gin. The running total is tracked and published throughout the rally. It's a fun excuse to bar-hop through Temma, Nakazakicho, and Umeda, discovering gin in places that don't usually serve it.

FAQ

Do I need to register or pay to join?

No—just visit a participating bar during the rally and order gin. You only pay for what you drink.

Can I enjoy it without knowing much about gin?

Absolutely—many participants are casual standing bars and izakaya, so it's designed for trying gin one easy glass at a time.

Where can I find the list of bars?

The full list of 21 bars is on organizer andground's official site.
