Four Asia’s 50 Best Bars Take Over The Amber Terrace Jaipur

Jaipur is set to welcome an extraordinary evening of contemporary cocktail culture as The Amber Terrace at The Leela Palace Jaipur brings together four celebrated names from Asia’s bar scene on 29 August 2026. For one exclusive night, AQUA Bar, Vesper and Firefly from Bangkok, along with New Delhi’s AABBCC, will come together for a unique showcase of creativity, craftsmanship and storytelling.

Recognised in the Asia’s 50 Best Bars 2026 list, the four bars bring distinct personalities and philosophies to Jaipur. AQUA Bar is ranked No. 48, Vesper No. 56, Firefly No. 78 and AABBCC No. 85, making the evening a rare opportunity to experience multiple acclaimed cocktail concepts under one roof.

Four Bars, Four Distinct Cocktail Philosophies

Each bar brings its own interpretation of modern mixology to The Amber Terrace.

AQUA Bar takes a playful and imaginative approach, placing storytelling and discovery at the heart of its cocktails. Vesper, meanwhile, draws on a refined understanding of cocktail history and technique, creating drinks shaped by craftsmanship and evolution.

Firefly offers a more immersive experience, drawing inspiration from nature, mythology and different places to create cocktails that go beyond the glass. AABBCC takes an experimental route, exploring ideas of deconstruction, evolution and the connection between the past, present and future.

Together, these four approaches promise an evening filled with inventive flavours, modern techniques and cocktails with a story to tell.

An Evening Under the Jaipur Sky

The collaboration will take place at The Amber Terrace, The Leela Palace Jaipur’s open-air dining and drinking destination overlooking the Aravalli Hills. Known for its Root to Fruit philosophy, the venue brings botanicals, fruits, herbs and spices into contemporary cocktails.

As the sun sets over the Aravallis, the terrace will transform into a meeting point for international cocktail culture and Jaipur’s distinctive sense of place. Guests can expect an atmosphere where cocktails, conversation and creativity come together beneath the open skies.

Anoop Pandey, Vice President & General Manager, The Leela Palace Jaipur, described the collaboration as an opportunity to bring different expressions of contemporary bar culture together while creating an experience that remains connected to Jaipur’s setting.

A Showcase of Contemporary Hospitality

The event reflects The Leela Palace Jaipur’s continued focus on creating distinctive food and beverage experiences. By bringing together acclaimed bars and creative talent from across India and Asia, the collaboration offers guests an opportunity to explore new perspectives on contemporary cocktail culture.

More than simply a night of drinks, the showcase is designed around discovery, craftsmanship and the stories behind modern cocktails.
