Tian Bar at Four Seasons Hotel Guangzhou Launches Flower Cocktail Menu 2.0- Inspired by “The City Of Flowers”

Published on : Friday, March 12, 2021

Guangzhou, the City of Flowers, enjoys fresh blooms year-round, which has given rise to its Chinese nickname “Huacheng.” Inspired by The City of Flowers, Tian Bar has created a new standard in hand-crafted cocktails with each of the 15 new cocktail creations, including 3 mocktails, feature an exotic blend of flower-themed ingredients.

Head Bartender Antonio De Luca, in collaboration with Hope & Sesame – the #36 of Asia’s 50 Best Bars – has created this flower-centric cocktail menu 2.0, which will take guests on a multi-sensory journey of fusion flavours and visual indulgence. “In this second edition of the flower menu, we aim to explore various techniques while extracting our ingredients from flowers. Let it be tinctures, bitters, infusion or fragrances – the natural beauty and elegance of flowers brings us joy and pleasure, which heightens the cocktail experience,” explains Antonio.

This new floral cocktail menu includes four series (Sweet Floral, Sour, Spirit Forwards and Floral) and with each series are three cocktail options. Galangal Flowers, one of the signature cocktails from the Sweet selection, includes galangal infused Flor de Cana 4 years old rum, lemongrass Mancino Bianco vermouth, Nordes gin and aromatic coconut cream and pandan to reinforce its depth of flavours.

The Sakura is a stronger cocktail from the Spirit Forwards selection that combines Monkey 47 gin infused with sakura and butterfly-pea, with enhanced nuttiness from a salted plum, and Mancino Sakura vermouth.

Osmanthus, a very popular cocktail in the previous Flower Menu, remains in the 2.0 Menu. Antonio has created a method to extract the taste and aroma from the flowers. He mixes the Monkey 47 gin with osmanthus flowers, peach liqueur, and oolong tea. He then clarifies the mixture with yoghurt to create a soft and creamy flavour. The purple-coloured mixed liquid is filled in a distinctively shaped glass. The highlight from the Floral selection is Violette, a floral Martini made with a blend of rooibos tea, distilled vodka, lavender bitters, homemade violette liqueur, and Mancino Secco vermouth.

Located on the 99th floor of Four Seasons Hotel Guangzhou, Tian Bar offers a spectacular view of the city skyline. Cut from a single piece of rare multicoloured agate, the bar serves as an excellent conversation-starter at the cocktail lounge. Tian Bar offers up to 100 beverage choices including selected wines, premium champagne and crafted cocktails. Settle in for an evening of drinks, music and stunning night views.
