Manhattan Bar Singapore:
\nBringing NYC to Southeast Asia<\/span><\/h2>\n

 <\/p>\n

Virt\u00f9 Bar<\/strong><\/a> brings Paris to Tokyo.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

BKK Social Club<\/strong><\/a> transports Latin America to Bangkok.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

And Manhattan Bar Singapore exudes the glamor of New York City\u2019s golden age in Southeast Asia. Set in one of the world\u2019s most international cities, the concept feels less like import and more like alignment.<\/p>\n

World\u2019s first in-hotel rickhouse<\/h3>\n

The rickhouse is one of Manhattan Bar\u2019s defining features and one of the most distinctive elements of any cocktail bar in the world. Traditionally, a rickhouse is where whiskey barrels are stored and aged, often in large, climate-influenced warehouses. Manhattan takes that concept and brings it inside the bar, creating a working aging room that\u2019s both functional and theatrical.<\/p>\n

Here, rows of small oak barrels are used to age cocktails, spirits, and custom blends on-site. Instead of simply mixing drinks to order, the team pre-batches certain cocktails and lets them mature over time, allowing flavors to integrate, soften, and deepen\u2014much like a fine whiskey. Unsurprisingly, the Manhattan cocktail is obviously a signature offering from the rickhouse.[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text uncode_shortcode_id=”144705″ el_class=”new-moduli-citazione-small-mobile”]<\/p>\n
