The barmenu is influenced by Hemingway’s libations of choice. Each cocktail crafted by Prabowo and his teamnot only has a distinctlyAsian touch, but also displays passion and appreciation for literature. From a list of seven “Best of the Old Man” mixes, guests can savor drinks that were affectionately titled after Hemingway’s classics. The Sun Also Rises , a novel written in 1926, inspired the tropical concoction of coconut oil fat- washed applejack, curry leaf infused gin, sweet vermouth, sous-vide pandan leaves and kaffir lime. For a combination of rosemary infused pisco, turmeric and tamarind cordial and citrus, Green Hills of Africa , written by Hemingway in 1935, is a refreshing treat. A cocktail that unites sweet and tangy flavors, The Snows of Kilimanjaro (published in 1936) boasts marshmallow gin, lacto-fermented raspberry, citrus and gruyere.
