On April 7, 2025, Tatler named Bar Trigona at Four Seasons Hotel Kuala Lumpur one of the 20 Best Bars in Malaysia, spotlighting it as a must-visit destination for cocktail lovers.
Selected by a panel of judges and the Tatler Dining team, the guide is part of the newly expanded Tatler Best Malaysia—a definitive list highlighting the country’s top culinary and drink experiences.
This marks the first year Tatler has featured bars in its guide, and Bar Trigona stands out for its imaginative program led by Beverage Manager Rohan Matmary, praised for his “creative and fun” approach.
The bar’s current Colour Me Curious 2.0 menu is noted for standout creations like The Wagyu, rich with umami and spice, and The Elysian, a luxurious vodka-Chablis cocktail topped with Trigona Oscietra caviar.
“We’re honoured to be recognised,” says Rohan. “It’s exciting to see Malaysia’s bar scene being celebrated on such a platform.”
The Colour Me Curious 2.0 menu is a sensory exploration of Malaysia’s natural richness, offering everything from honey-forward cocktails to low-ABV and spirit-free drinks.
Staying true to its farm-to-glass ethos, Bar Trigona works closely with local farmers and producers, using native fruits, herbs, and spices while minimising waste and promoting sustainability.
One of its signature efforts, the Adopt a Beehive program, invites guests to support sustainable beekeeping. A portion of each cocktail’s proceeds helps restore local bee habitats, with menus printed on eco-friendly hemp and recycled paper.
A leader in the region, Bar Trigona has appeared on Asia’s 50 Best Bars list for six years running, earning accolades like the Ketel One Sustainable Bar Award and the Siete Misterios Best Cocktail Menu Award.
In 2024, it was also ranked among Tatler Asia’s 100 Best Bars and listed in the Top Ten Best International Hotel Bars at the Spirited Awards.
Bar Trigona continues to raise the bar for Malaysian mixology—one locally inspired cocktail at a time.
