From Garden to Glass
At these Rosewood destinations, the journey to the glass begins well before the first pour. Ingredients are selected with a close sense of place — whether gathered from on-property gardens and farms, sourced through local suppliers, or inspired by the surrounding landscape at peak season. More than a visual flourish, this thoughtful approach brings a deeper dimension to the drinking experience, redefining what “local” can mean at the bar.
A Sky Bar with High Ambitions
Rosewood Phnom Penh
Towering above street level, Rosewood Phnom Penh grows its own produce in multiple gardens situated around the property, including two hydroponic gardens free of soil or cold-chain logistics that subsequently supply about 70 percent of the hotel’s leafy vegetables, microgreens and garnishes. Bartenders at Sora, the hotel’s award-winning bar, pull fresh herbs from their own rooftop garden in what is surely the shortest farm-to-bar route in the city. The signature Sora Martini takes the philosophy further, built on a house vermouth made from the kitchen's own by-products. Explore its Build & Sip menu, an experience that highlights ingredients from the garden such as Sora chili, spearmint, basil and lemongrass while celebrating the rich layers of Khmer heritage.
The Spirit of the Estate
Rosewood Castiglion del Bosco
Set against panoramic views of the Tuscan hills, The Lobby Bar at Rosewood Castiglion del Bosco brings a strong sense of season and setting to the drinks experience. Cocktails draw on ingredients from the estate’s organic vegetable garden, greenhouse and neighboring local suppliers, with a menu inspired by the seasonal rhythm of its garden and surrounding landscape. For those looking to continue that exploration through wine, the Castiglion del Bosco Winery is just steps away, with Brunello di Montalcino tastings and a range of immersive experiences, from private villa tastings and verticals to seasonal moments such as the grape harvest that offer a closer look at the region’s winemaking traditions.
A Study in Mexican Flavors
Rosewood Mayakoba
At La Ceiba Garden & Kitchen, interactive dinners, cooking demonstrations and tastings bring guests into a culinary experience shaped by champion ingredients, Mayan ideas and local references. Nearby, Zapote Bar extends that sense of discovery through a cocktail program dedicated to the diversity of Mexican craft spirits, alongside fine wines, craft beers and refreshing cocktails in a relaxed indoor-outdoor space that shifts seamlessly from daytime leisure to an evening drinks destination.
Botanicals by the Bay
Rosewood Abu Dhabi
The connection between place and pour comes naturally to life at the Hidden Bar at Rosewood Abu Dhabi, where a curated gin collection and house-infused vermouths form the foundation of bespoke cocktails, mixed to order. Much of what garnishes each glass grows close by. An on-site hydroponic farm grows fresh herbs, edible flowers and greens, handpicked and supplied to the hotel’s bars and restaurants, where they brighten cocktails and dishes alike.
