Biso Cocktail Bar

Penang, Malaysia

Biso Cocktail Bar delivers a contemporary and experimental cocktail experience in the heart of George Town

 

Every facet of the cocktail bar keeps true to its heritage, with its namesake meaning ‘flavour’ in Penang Hokkien. Founded by Quay Kar Ve, Biso breaks free from the confines of classics and instead pushes the envelope with a drinks programme focused on evolution and experimentation. Take, for example, its signature N.E.O.H—a love letter to coriander spiked with gin and melon liqueur—or its No.1, a tipple inspired by Italian pastas crafted with lacto-fermented tomatoes, white balsamic, and black pepper.
