Bar Otani

Taipei, Taiwan

This dark and small Japanese-style bar, hidden in an old office building, epitomises reserved and calm service. Black walls and no background music ensure the drinks own the spotlight, serenaded only by the sound of ice crashing in the shaker and the mechanical hum from the freezer. In true Japanese style, drinks are created for guests depending on their tastes and mood, drawing inspiration from the classical canon of cocktails. This tiny speakeasy is perfect for solo drinkers or those who come to worship at the altar of Japanese bartending.
