It’s three in the top 13 with Caprice Bar at #10, Bar Trigona at #12 and Charles H. at #13
Three bars within three Four Seasons hotels have earned top accolades for their innovation and dedication to quality and guest experience as ranked by Asia’s Best Bars Academy. In a virtual ceremony on May 6, 2021, the best of the best were revealed, and in a year like no other, Four Seasons bar teams shook, stirred and swizzled their way to the top of Asia’s dynamic bar scene.
#10 Best Bar in Asia: Caprice Bar at Four Seasons Hotel Hong Kong
Caprice Bar also shares joint honours for the Nikka Highest Climber award, having risen from its debut rank of #34 in 2020.
There’s a distinct French flavour at the intimate Caprice Bar at Four Seasons Hotel Hong Kong, which shares an enviable wine cellar with the adjacent three Michelin starred Caprice Restaurant, as well as access to one of Asia’s treasure troves of fine French cheeses. Under the visionary guidance of Lorenzo Antinori, the Hotel’s Beverage Manager as well as a Four Seasons Asia Pacific Beverage Ambassador, Caprice Bar was reborn in 2019 with a focus on exceptional guest experiences through theatrical serves and rituals. The cocktail menu is enhanced by Sommelier Victor Petiot’s personal selections, and Chef Guillaume Galliot’s exceptional bites.
Asia’s 50 Best Bars recommends: “Try the Caprice Martini made with Jura yellow wine served with a side of 48-month aged French Comté cheese, or the very popular Truffle Negroni. As can be expected, service is top-notch.”
#12 Best Bar in Asia: Bar Trigona at Four Seasons Hotel Kuala Lumpur
Bar Trigona has risen from #14 in Asia in 2020, and is also ranked #1 in Malaysia.
Ranked on the list since its opening just three years ago and already a two-time winner of the Ketel One Sustainable Bar Award, Bar Trigona at Four Seasons Hotel Kuala Lumpur continues to lead the way in sustainable practices while offering innovative cocktails served by storytelling bartenders. Inspired by the trigona honeybee for which the bar is named, Head Bartender Ashish Sharma and his team have forged partnerships with local producers, including the Dino Kelulut Organic Farm, where bar guests have the opportunity to “adopt” a bee hive. “Root to shoot” is the mantra as the team aims for zero waste in extracting every drop of flavour from indigenous fruits, herbs and spices.

Suggests Asia’s 50 Best Bars: “Book a table for sundown – the mosaic and mirroring across the bar splays light all around the room during golden hour.”
#13 Best Bar in Asia: Charles H. at Four Seasons Hotel Seoul
Charles H. has risen from #29 in 2020, and is also ranked #1 in Korea.
Inspired by the travels and writings of legendary cocktail connoisseur and bon vivant Charles H. Baker, Charles H. is styled as a speakeasy, tucked away inside Four Seasons Hotel Seoul. Head Bartender Keith Motsi – himself becoming a legend in Asia’s bar scene – and his team may be inspired by the past but they’re always looking ahead too, with innovative themed cocktail menus, signature beer labels, and an always memorable experience.
Notes by Asia’s 50 Best Bars: “Helmed by the ever-dapper Keith Motsi, the bar improves year on year under his talented bar-stewardship and this year marks the highest position it has ever achieved.”
