Banksii

The husband and wife duo behind Surry Hills' Bar H have branched out with a Barangaroo-based botanical bar. What exactly is a botanical bar? Well they are focusing a lot of energy on vermouth – the aromatized, fortified wine that's flavoured with roots, barks, flowers, seeds, herbs, spices. It's a staple in Martinis and Manhattans, and it's also a decent apertif – they'e got a selection of over 40 of them at Banksii so there's sure to be something to both educate newbies and impress botanical buffs.
