While you’ll find CODA at the InterContinental Singapore Robertson Quay, there’s no mistaking it for your run-of-the-mill hotel bar. Instead, the plush lounge offers a playground of opportunity to discover the vibrant flavours of baijiu, sake, shochu, soju, arak, and beyond. The bar program is led by General Manager Treyna Zhang, who crafts refined cocktails around Asian ingredients. The vodka-based Bamboo, for instance, artfully blends bamboo leaf, fenjiu (a Chinese spirit distilled from sorghum), Shaoxing rice wine and osmanthus. Reservations are crucial, particularly if you want a coveted seat at the stunning stainless steel monoblock bar. A separate ‘back room’ featuring retro-fabulous undulating metallic walls and an enviable collection of premium and rare agave spirits is designed for connoisseurs and intimate parties.
