Celebrations call for alcohol—specifically whisky, for the chaps unafraid to stir their senses in multiple directions. The newest upmarket bar in the city specializes in precisely that. The Whisky Library opened in July this year at the Grand Wing of Newport World Resorts, and is already becoming a go-to for those who want a sophisticated atmosphere to go with their cocktails.

Take a look at The Whisky Library at Newport World Resorts:
As its name suggests, The Whisky Library is a repository for some of the world's finest whiskies and spirits. According to Kevin Tan, CEO of Alliance Global Group, the space was previously unused until he decided to turn it into a bar with a focus on different varietiies of the so-called "water of life." An enormous floor-to-ceiling "shelf" filled with bottles greets guests as they enter. There are over 240 brands of whisky available, which is purportedly the largest collection anywhere in Manila.
Off to one side is a shelf featuring the Dalmore Constellation Series, which highlights some of the rarest (and tastiest) from the premium Scotch whisky brand. Other brands that can be enjoyed at The Whisky Library include Tamnavulin, Jura, Whyte & Mackay, and The Singleton, among others.
Besides offering alcohol, The Whisky Library also serves gourmet options for pairing including a USDA Beef Sirloin cooked sous vide, then garnished with dehydrated mushrooms and dark beer pear chutney. There's also a cigar bar, should you be into that.
There is fine leather furniture spread out across the floor, a spiral staircase that leads to a mezzanine level, and high crystalline chandeliers that illuminate the space.
The Whisky Library is undoubtedly a welcome addition to Manila's already lively bar scene.
