Bar: Bandista
- Concept: An intimate, modern-day speakeasy (literally hidden behind a bookcase), reminiscent of a 1920s lounge that dazzles with a decadent Latin vibe. Led by expert drink makers, guests of the 20-seat bar and lounge enjoy inventive creations, colourful and celebratory in nature, and often with unexpected elements. Its eight bar seats provide a centre-stage show of the cocktail laboratory that pushes boundaries while still paying homage to the classics, while guests connect with other discreet patrons. Vintage barware, whimsical accoutrements, and rare spirits from around the world complement the vibe. Inspired by the tequileros - the Prohibition-era smugglers who illegally transported tequila - Bandista is a cocktail journey and experience, rich in craftsmanship, creativity, and Southern hospitality.
