RTL

Conveniently situated next to the stylish Four Seasons Hotel Jakarta, RTL is a bar and lounge fully dedicated to whisky connoisseurs. Located in the heart of Jakarta’s city centre, the space is sleek and elegant. With full bottle racks covering the walls, RTL is the ultimate destination for young professionals to wind down after work.

The vibe inside the bar is relaxed, with live music playing every night. During the weekend, guests are also treated to quality music from Jakarta’s most renowned DJs. Under the dim lightning, a multitude of sofa booths, chairs and low tables provide cosy areas for friends to gather and imbibe the extensive range of whiskies, single malts and wines, as well as serious cocktails, from classics to in-house creations. The venue also offers the chance to party in private in one of its private rooms that can seat up to 20 people.

While the bar’s main focus on whiskies is pretty clear, it also offers other premium spirits for those looking for something lighter or sweeter. One of the bestsellers is the De La Maquina cocktail. Inspired by vibrant and colourful Jogjakarta, this drink is made using a combination of three light and dark rums, as well as orange and lemon juice.

To soak up all the alcohol, RTL also offers a variety of premium bar snacks that includes sesame prawn cake, croqueta and mahi-mahi. Looking for something filling? A selection from the grill is also available, ranging from striploin, lamb shank and burger. There is sure to be something to keep you going through the lively evening.
