Humboldt Bar

Victoria, Canada

Meander down a quiet Melbourne street bearing von Humboldt's name and you’ll find a bar built in the 19th century explorer's image. This spacious, moody bar is defined by dark wood, botanical prints and a cocktail menu that traces the naturalist’s discoveries through flavour. The citrus-forward Cyanometer arrives azure-blue with a cloud-like layer of foam, named after the instrument von Humboldt used to measure the deepest shade of blue sky ever recorded during his historic Andean expedition. Cotopaxi, a rum-based cocktail served hot, is finished with a dash of cinnamon and set alight barside. A short food menu offers classics that complement the experimental cocktails, including an unctuous lamb gnocchi and springy sourdough focaccia.
