The Lounge Bar, located on the second floor of the beautifully restored shophouse and tucked away on Duxton Road, is curating Singapore’s finest Savoie inspired cocktails. With access to over 40 herbs flown directly from the stunning French Alps, The Lounge Bar is the Lion City’s first drinking establishment offering such a dedicated selection and bringing a little slice of the alps to Asia.

The bar is part of JAG Restaurants Pte Ltd and owned by fine-dining industry veteran Anant Tyagi and Michelin Starred Chef Jérémy Gillon. Resident alco-alchemist, Yong Siang Neo a.k.a. Y.S., has been hand-picked to tailor the menu – his only instruction – to keep the provenance of ingredients at the forefront, in line with the restaurant’s vision and to source independent, small-batch craft spirits.
Herb-Inspired Concoctions In a league of its own, The Lounge Bar cocktail program is a delicious, if somewhat potent, an ode to Chef Gillon’s hand-selected herbs.

Menthe Poivrée – Imagine an aromatic blast of peppermint, thyme the moment you pick up this Islay led cocktail. A generous dram of Smokehead whirled around with Montenegro, Branca Mentha, Campari, Carpano Antica formula and Angostura Bitters is sublime.

Hyssop

 

Hyssop – if you’re craving a slightly bitter pour, look no further. The carefully calculated formula of this minty herb with high tannins with infused rum, St Germaine liqueur, Peychaud Bitters, pillow-soft egg-white, a dash of lime juice and simple syrup – simply addictive.

Agastache

 

Agastache – this thoughtful creation is a complex mix of this licorice, almost star anise-flavored herb, with beautifully distilled pisco. Add the slightly smokey Pierde Almas Mezcal, Aperol, whisked egg white, lemon juice, grapefruit bitters, sage syrup and you’ll reach new highs!

Thilleuil– see the distinct floral flavors of this beautiful cocktail come together before your eyes. This uniquely aromatic herb is elevated with a pour of the smooth Ben Nevis 10-year-old single malt Whisky, a dash of Suze Gentiane, Umeshu Kanjuku Ume, Jasmine Green tea, lemon juice, and egg white.

Sapin – the striking pine tree fragrance of the herbs hits the palette immediately. Blended with infused vodka, blueberry puree, lime juice, maraschino syrup, Prune Eau De Vie and egg white, this stunning cocktail is impressive.

Surreau – another must-sip is influenced by the elderberry herb served with an exceptional combination of luxurious Pierre Ferrand Cognac, Champagne, Raspberry puree, Eau De Vie, lemon juice, and a splash of homemade syrup.

Sazerac

 

In addition to the bar’s signature selection, the classics have been embraced and elevated to greater heights with the help of craft spirits. Personal recommendations from Y.S? The highly potent The Corpse Reviver No. 2 and Sazerac.
