LIT Manila is an oasis of genuine drinking refinery in Bonifacio Global City. Solid location, great ambiance with wood paneled bar, painted mural and retractable wall and outdoor seating. But the real star is the whiskey (they specialize in Japanese and secondly Scotch but have a huge variety) and the cocktail menu — even the non-whiskey drinkers will be delighted by the Southeast-Asian-inflected drinks with clever juice, syrup, and garnishments that are delightfully uncommon. They also have barrel-aged cocktails as well, just ask!Ruel (pardon the spelling) treated my family and I excellently and was a great conversationalist too. He made us a TSM, Summer in Hokkaido and an off-menu signature drink featuring Nikka Single Malt, grapefruit juice, Cointreau, an Absinthe wash, finished by flaming with grapefruit oil.Overall, delightful, and well-priced! They also have curated whiskey flights, and thoughtful portioning if you want to try a certain/specific whiskey.We didn’t get any food but they have a list of small plates and also can get proper plates (steak frites, etc.) from nearby Mamou until 9pm or a bit later.LIT is worth a visit if you like Whiskey, especially Japanese, but also fine cocktails in general!

Whiskey, cocktails, great knowledge staff & old school music played on records that attracts lots of expats.

ハイボールとカクテル飲んだが、とにかく水っぽくて美味しくない。雰囲気は悪くないが、肝心のドリンクはマズイ。おススメしません。The atmosphere is ok but the quality of drinks is terrible. You’d better to have drinks in other bars.

Bill padding. Tried to charge 5000 for a drink.

So expensive. So Meh.

Lots of whisky and gin options.

Cool whiskey bar with great selections of Japanese whiskey.

I love drink and Frances!

In terms of whiskey selection, competes with Raging Bull and (kinda) Elberts Upstairs for widest range.

Expensive but wonderful whiskey
