Bar Bastion—the chic cocktail lounge perched above the acclaimed fine dining restaurant Le Jardinier and part of The Bastion Collection—joins forces with the legendary French crystal house Baccarat for an exclusive collaboration that promises to elevate the art of luxury imbibing.
A Cocktail Menu That Sparkles
The limited-time menu features three standout creations, each served in Baccarat’s signature crystal glassware, designed to enhance the sensory experience:
- Radiant Rouge: Served in the Talleyrand “Encore” Coupe, this vibrant cocktail is a bold blend of olive oil-washed Truman Vodka, tomato water, and dry vermouth, finished with a delicate basil oil garnish. Its striking red hue and refreshing flavor profile make it a true showstopper.
- Golden Harmonie: A luxurious concoction served in the Harmonie Tumbler, this cocktail combines Zacapa 23 Rum, Diplomático Reserva, and walnut bitters, topped with edible gold flakes. It’s a drink that exudes opulence, both in taste and presentation.
- Le Fourneau: Presented in the Mille Nuits Glass, this visually stunning cocktail features The Gardener Gin, rhubarb, and ginger foam. Its intricate layers and vibrant colors are a testament to the artistry behind every sip.
A Dessert Inspired by Crystal
No luxury experience is complete without a touch of sweetness. Le Jardinier’s Executive Pastry Chef Salvatore Martone has crafted a specialty dessert to complement the collaboration: the Raspberry Chocolate Bonbon. Inspired by the brilliance of Baccarat’s crystal, this decadent treat is a harmonious blend of rich chocolate and tangy raspberry, encased in a glossy, jewel-like shell. It’s a fitting finale to an evening of unparalleled indulgence.
A Legacy of Elegance
For over 260 years, Baccarat has been synonymous with elegance, craftsmanship, and celebration. Its crystal creations have graced the tables of royalty and adorned the world’s most iconic moments. This collaboration with Bar Bastion is a natural extension of that legacy, bringing the brand’s artistry to life in a new and immersive way.
Guests are invited to revel in this one-of-a-kind experience, where the craftsmanship of cocktails, cuisine, and crystal artistry come together in perfect harmony. Whether you’re a connoisseur of fine spirits, a lover of exquisite design, or simply seeking a memorable night out, this partnership promises to deliver an unforgettable experience.
The Bar Bastion x Baccarat collaboration will be available for a limited time, so mark your calendars and prepare to indulge in a celebration of luxury, creativity, and heritage.
