Although temporarily closed while the alcohol sales ban at bars and restaurants remains in effect, the Four Seasons’ long-awaited flagship bar, BKK Social Club, has nevertheless finally arrived.

Led by Berliner bar manager Philip Bischoff—who previously held court at Singapore’s decorated Manhattan Bar—BKK Social Club spans the globe in drawing inspiration from Buenos Aires, a city Bischoff believes is a distant sister to Bangkok. Drinks like Evita (rum, Campari, apricot, bay leaf; B420), fine cigars, and grand, airy architecture bear out this idea.
