The world-rum collection
An extensive collection of rum from around the world lined up behind the bar — poured neat for tasting, or as the base of the bar's cocktails.
150/7/3 Nguyen Trai · Ben Thanh · District 1
VESOU COCKTAIL BAR
Down the stairs from Nguyen Trai is a rum cellar: a world-rum collection behind the bar, cocktails built on Vietnamese ingredients, and the light kept at a whisper.
The descent — collection and classics
Rum from around the world, mixed with Vietnamese ingredients
Vesou is a rum bar first: behind the counter stands a collection of rum from around the world, and the bar works it two ways — rum classics made properly, and cocktails built on Vietnamese ingredients.
Classics and Vietnamese ingredients
The bar mixes rum two ways: the spirit's classics made by the book, and creations built on Vietnamese ingredients — two halves of the same shelf.
Three frames to open
Bottles on the counter, three cocktails on a table and the sofa corner under the beams — how an evening at Vesou opens.
On the counter
Bottles and tasting glasses on the wooden counter — where a rum tasting at Vesou starts, right in front of the bar's wall of bottles.
Three on a table
Three cocktails, three colours on one table — Vesou's creative half, built on rum and Vietnamese ingredients.
The sofa corner
Blue sofas and orange cushions under timber beams in the tiled lounge — the cellar's slowest seats.
Inside the room
Brick, timber, patterned tile and low light — Vesou through its guests' own photos.
