Mitsukoshi Nihombashi closes its British Exhibition with Kensington Palace's Orangery tea making its Japan debut
Mitsukoshi's Nihombashi flagship wraps its 2026 British Exhibition today with a Japan-first afternoon tea from Kensington Palace's Orangery restaurant, the latest sign that the store's marquee summer event still runs on imported prestige rather than seasonal markdown.
Nihombashi Mitsukoshi's main store closes its "British Exhibition 2026" (英国展2026) today, a two-part event that ran across the store's seventh-floor event space from August 19 to 31, according to Isetan Mitsukoshi Holdings. The centrepiece was the Japan debut of the afternoon tea served at Kensington Palace's Orangery restaurant in London, priced at ¥9,900 per set and offered by reservation.
