An underground bar dedicated to exploring the wonders of the wide world of rum, all decked out with lush furnishings, table service and a fondness for fire.
This rum bar not only knows its product better than the next place, it offers more of it, in more varieties, than just about anywhere, with around 300 kinds of handpicked rums from near and far. Add the underground setting, where cane chairs, curved leather booths and indoor plants aplenty combine with colourful wallpaper and crumbling walls, and it’s no wonder this place pumps long into the night.
The rugs, booths and lounges here are all made for sinking into, and the table service means, rather than queuing at the bar to order your next round, it comes to you on a silver platter. If you’d like to take a tour of the world’s rums, there’s the comprehensive house journal, complete with tasting notes and recommendations – you could start with one made in the Caribbean then head to the Americas. If you want to skip the reading, a team of some of the city’s best bartenders know the list by heart, and will share the background on that sweet thing you’re sipping as quickly as they’ll mix you a house favourite from a short sharp cocktail list. The drinks here are on fire – and we mean that quite literally.
