There are so many types of alcoholic drinks, from rum, wine, tequila, and beer, to whiskey. For you whisky lovers, here are the 5 best whiskey bars in Jakarta you should drink to satisfy your individual palate.
1. Bauhaus 1933 (Permanently closed)
This nightclub’s location is pretty covert, its nondescript wrought iron entrance is the only thing that gives it away. The stairs lead you down into an underground lair, where a vintage and European-feeling speakeasy bar awaits to while away your evening hours.

If you looking for great whiskey, try their single malts from Scotland’s high and lowlands. Japanese single malts, Yamazaki, Hakushu, and Hakashi are also on the menu.

If you are around the Senayan area and want to drink whiskey, then Prohibition is a place for you to go.
Prohibition is divided into two separate areas, the chophouse which is Prohibition’s main dining area, and a hidden speakeasy bar which is concealed and restricted for members only. By looking at the interior, menu, and elaborate list of alcoholic drinks, you can see that Prohibition is duly committed to the underground spirit in the 1920s.
