The remaining three nights will be spent at the enchanting Okazaki Bettei at Hotel Okura in Kyoto. Delight in the culinary expertise of Kenzo Estate at three of their five exclusive restaurants in Japan: Ginza and Roppongi in Tokyo, and Gion in Kyoto. Your visit to Gion is further enhanced with a time-honored performance by traditional geisha, including Japanese dances, nagauta long songs and shamisen music at the very top of Ochaya Ichirikitei, a historic and exclusive teahouse in Kyoto.
Your auction lot is completed with a coveted three-liter bottle collection from Kenzo Estate, featuring wines from the exquisite 2013 vintage: ai, murasaki and rindo.
