Tiger Sun, a new omakase-style cocktail bar in Atlanta, offers a four-course tasting menu of immersive libations paired with a complementary, playful bite. Priced at $75 per person, the pairings aims to guide guests through a journey of unique flavors and techniques.
The Fish and Karate cocktail in particular offers a unique experience, thanks to a key ingredient: gin that’s been fat-washed with cream cheese. The drink, which also includes mezcal and cucumber vermouth, boasts a briny yet fresh punch of flavor. The cream cheese-washed gin combined with cucumber and a nori garnish emulates the flavors of a California roll, especially once paired with the Sweet Crab Crispy Rice with Sesame Butter and Soy Sherry.
The 18-seat Tiger Sun, which opened late last year and is operated by Electric Hospitality, resides aboard a refurbished vintage tour bus parked behind its sister concept, Muchacho. The bar’s themed menu rotates throughout the year, with each rendition pulling inspiration from classic 80s and 90s movies.
