Dining, 21 January 2024
Chengdu, China, 18th January, 2024 – The Bar launches a new cocktail menu themed "Niccolo Journey", inspired by Niccolo Polo, the father of the renowned explorer Marco Polo, to honour the pioneer spirit of adventure. The Bar infuses the cocktails with legendary stories to create a unique drinking experience.

The "Niccolo Journey” cocktail menu is inspired by Niccolo Polo, the father of Marco Polo, whose epic The Travels of Marco Polo opened China to Europe. “Niccolo Journey” is a tribute to both Eastern and Western cultures and the spirit of the explorers. The "Niccolo Journey" cocktail menu contains five specially-crafted cocktails, each of which tells a distinctive legendary story. Get inspired with our signature cocktails and enjoy a joyful night.

100056012.jpgThe Niccolo Trio cocktail symbolises the epic expedition made by Marco Polo, his father Niccolo Polo, and his uncle Maffeo Polo, who traveled to China from Venice in the 13th century. The mellow gin cocktail with herbal fragrance is designed to impress you with its balanced bittersweet flavour and rich inspiring stories behind it.

Explorers who journeyed on the Silk Road carried a range of exotic culinary items that shocked our taste buds, among which was chili pepper - the key ingredient for this cocktail. The Silk Road cocktail crafted with port wine and agave syrup features the perfect blend of spicy and fruity twists, and is carried in a beautiful blue-and-white ceramic cup.

Keen to venture into an unknown territory, explorers discovered Chinese tea, which later became the drink of choice for ancient Western nobles and gained recognition around the world. The Mystery of the East, a spicy pepper cocktail concocted with refreshing gin, exudes enchanting aromas when paired with covered bowl tea.

Venezia, a romantic city through which clear water flows, is the dream destination for many people. Venezia Spritz, a refreshing tonic water cocktail adorned in charming blue colour, releases constant bubbles and carries sweet liqueur notes infused with slight bitterness.

The Adventurer's Blood cocktail is served in an exquisite cup that features the shape of a bronze mask. Bourbon whiskey is combined with Earl Gray tea and tomato juice to produce a radical red cocktail that pays homage to the Bronze Age civilisation and the holy spirit of bold adventure.
