Head over to Macau as Capella at Galaxy Macau proudly presents Pony & Plume, which boasts a massive collection of over 650 individual and curated whiskies courtesy of consultant Blair Bowman. Pony & Plume promises a strong experience for both the experienced and under-initiated – the latter can sample drams via whisky flights or opt for a cocktail menu developed by mixologist Billy Choi.
The menu is split into two acts – A Vintage Journey in Smoke and Sip the Now – which look at Macau’s history and modernity respectively, via cocktails like the Island Libre, which adds Laphroaig 10 to Ron Zacapa 23 Rum and spiced cola, or the Umami martini, adding lychee, olive and sea salt to the classic recipe.
