The Mixologists of The Liquid Lab by W Taipei have created cocktails with ‘liqueurs and bitters’ to bring guests “big flavours, little hangover” at the top-floor YEN Bar.

Using products such as Jagermiester, Campari, dark cacao liqueur, Southern Comfort and Angostura orange bitters allow deep and complex flavours with less strength.

A selection of Chinese tapas has been designed to pair with these cocktails, served daily from 11am to midnight.

“Bitter to cocktails equals umami to culinary,” shared W Taipei Beverage & Food Director Patrick Duff. “Most of the liqueurs and bitters we used are made from a wine base fortified with herbs, spices and other botanicals which create this obsessive bitter-sweet taste into the cocktails created.”
