Finally, a legit jazz bar is now in Manila – Sage Bar in Makati Shangri-La that takes you to the scene that used to belong only to New Orleans, with talents like international jazz songstress Coco Rouzier from Washington. Its goal is to give Makati an authentic jazz experience like nothing you have ever seen or heard before, and boy, it did not disappoint.
Rouizer’s soulful sound and charismatic presence is definitely a welcome nightcap to an otherwise stressful day in the business district of Makati. It is no secret that Asians are a hard crowd to please, more so engage, but Rouizer seems to ease the normally reserved locals into dancing and singing with her through her captivating music and warm presence. With Sage Bar, Shangri-La hits the high note with its authentic jazz experience and fine selection of whisky. Makati Shangri-La promises an impressive lineup of performers all year round, and yes, the jazz experience is open every night.
With its re-launch, Sage Bar aims to master the “Art of Bar” – which means it is bringing class back to the drinking scene by filling 2016 with events to upgrade the bar experience in the metro. The bar promises a deeper appreciation for fine whisky with its full range of flights (samplers) served by a team of experts who will impress you not only with their mixologies but also their knowledge of whisky and other wines and spirits.
More than fine sound and sips – Sage further indulges the senses with interiors of smoky wood that create that husky sensual ambiance as beautiful and attentive servers delight even the most particular of guests.
Certainly, Sage elevates the bar scene by offering an experience that has the heart of soul.
