Loewy

Loewy is one of the most renowned places where the movers and shakers of the Jakarta’s social scene hang out. Their causal bistro like theme is a huge sensation in Jakarta and their amazing 15 meter long bar is one of the best layouts for any bartender to work in.

Amazing cocktails are always inspired by the simplest activities of everyday life and Kiki Moka, the mastermind behind all the innovations is the reason why Loewy’s marvellous cocktails are such a success. Loewy’s strategically divides the cocktails into four carefully organized sections of original Martinis, refreshing tall drinks, amazingly muddled cocktails and of course, the perfect classics. Cotton candy cosmopolitan is basically your traditional cosmo with just a huge cotton candy fluffing over your martini glass, sunken slowly by pouring the spirits over the cotton candy. However, the finest part of this cocktail is its elaborate preparation that achieves a perfect blend of sweet and sour. The inspiration behind Kiki’s brew is a combination of the television series, sex and the city and enjoying some cotton candy while waiting for his wife at the mall. The fun and playful Poprock Martini, a brilliant combination of grapefruit juice and the pop rock rim, is another classic example, as it is something that takes you back to your childhood days.

Above all, the ultimate will have to be their Liquid tiramisu. At first glimpse your assumption might be that a slice of good tiramisu cake was shoved into a blender together with various spirits, but it’s much more complicated than that. Instead it is the essence of the Tiramisu cake that is used and at the first sip you will instantly taste the 3 different layers and textures of this drink. First are the foamy whipped cream, then the rich combination of coffee and spirits and lastly, the chunks of chocolate that just melt in your mouth. Simply a star! Try their Diamonds are forever and cinnamon and ginger Julip as well.

Wait, let us make it 5 stars.
