Elysium at Wisma Goldhill, Raja Chulan: Snapshot

With a soaring 32nd-floor view that takes in both the Petronas Twin Towers & the KL Tower, Elysium’s cushion-filled outdoor lounge offers one of the city centre’s most scenic settings for kicking back over cocktails.

There’s an interesting list of mixes here that channel the kick of Angostura three-year-old – Herbs + Berries (RM33) combines the rum with fresh basil, dill & berries, while the Hibiscus Sour (RM28) partners it with hibiscus concentrate & orange liquor. And with other specially created cocktails like the Russian Spring Punch (RM29; ketel one vodka, raspberry puree, blackcurrant liquor, bubbly), Ro-Sey Lychee Martini (RM29; with house-made pandan rose syrup) & Pisco Cocombre (RM33; Pisco El Gobernador, egg white, cucumber syrup, fresh lemon juice), it’s easy to imagine the hours flying by till last call.
