Kaohsiung, Taiwan – a city kissed by sea breeze

Kaohsiung, Taiwan – a city kissed by sea breeze and neon light. Hidden in an unassuming building lies Bar Dip: a modern cocktail sanctuary woven with Hakka heritage. One sip of their Indigo Forest—herbal, floral, whispering of blue dye traditions—and you’re transported. Every drink here tells a story. Subtle. Unexpected. Local. Kaohsiung is full of contrasts—lush parks, brutalist buildings, vibrant food stalls. And cocktails that think beyond the glass. Read more on barstalker.de | Thank you @bar.dip_tw for the warm welcome, the instant recognition, and the very cool T-shirt.

Back at Voice Over Bar in Kaohsiung after two year

Back at Voice Over Bar in Kaohsiung after two years — and it’s still as captivating as ever.
Nestled in a 65-year-old building that once housed an otolaryngology clinic, this bar seamlessly blends vintage Taiwanese charm with modern mixology. The dim lighting, retro furnishings, and classic vinyl records create an atmosphere that’s both nostalgic and inviting.

Ended my Taipei trip with a final cocktail stop @madmen.tw Loved the sleek, moody space—and I even got a peek inside the lab behind the bar. The French ramen was a must-try—definitely something unique! Thanks to @syo3o6 for the warm welcome and hospitality. Great way to close out the journey.

BAR PINE is housed in a former lumber shop in Taip

BAR PINE is housed in a former lumber shop in Taipei’s Da’an District—a space that tells a story of memory, material, and modern Taiwanese identity. Stone and wood speak in soft dialogue. The calligraphed character “松” (pine), brushed by Godkidlla, anchors the bar with poetic weight: resilient, elegant, still. Now in its Season 6 menu, BAR PINE continues its exploration of local culture through a new lens: a fusion of New Taiwanese cuisine and New Taiwanese-style cocktails. This isn’t just food and drink—it’s narrative architecture. Dishes and drinks are built with the same intentionality as the space they’re served in. The 菜市場 (marketplace) theme evokes nostalgic market scenes, but what lands on the table is strikingly modern. I began with their bestseller: Sake / Bitter Gourd / Plum & Cedar Liqueur / Jin Xuan Oolong Soda—a balanced, quietly complex serve that lingers with clarity. Soon more on barstalker. de

Stayed longer than planned at Tor Day Bar in Taich

Stayed longer than planned at Tor Day Bar in Taichung yesterday — and that’s always the best sign. Great drinks, even better hospitality.
Tor Day, a name rooted in the Minnan dialect, reflects a deep love and respect for Taiwan — this small yet richly diverse island of just 36,000 square kilometers. Their concept beautifully weaves Taiwan’s geography and agricultural heritage into every cocktail.
The menu takes you on a sensory journey through Taiwan’s western alluvial plains, its mountainous coasts, and the vast eastern wilderness. Each drink is a tribute to the land — earthy, spicy, comforting, and wild. My favourite: Fertile Soil combining Peat I Tabasco | Blue Cheese | Beetroot

Two years ago, I stumbled into Moonrock in Tainan—and somehow, I never really left.
Still one of the most soulful, detail-obsessed bars I’ve ever loved. Every corner, every sip, still hits like the first time. Read my little love story on my website | link in bio

Had a lovely evening @barsebek in Fukuoka – a small, quiet bar hidden in the backstreets of Nakasu. It’s an intimate space, with just a few seats and a calm, welcoming atmosphere where every detail feels considered. The bar is run by Makiko Otsu, a skilled bartender with a thoughtful approach to her craft. I had her signature cocktail, the Tourbillon – a delicate mix of cognac, black tea, and rose syrup. It’s a layered, aromatic drink with a soft, elegant finish. A peaceful spot for anyone who appreciates a well-made cocktail without the fuss.
