Manhatta presents VIEWPOINTS

You don’t have to leave Lower Manhattan to experience some of the best bars in the world. Manhatta (on the 60th floor of 28 Liberty Street) is bringing them to you in a guest bartender series called “Viewpoints” over the next few months, beginning January 16.

No tickets or reservations are required. Guests can simply show up to the bar and get a taste of the best elixirs being served in Canada, Mexico and Southeast Asia. The kickoff on Monday features a cocktail specialist from Mother in Toronto, considered by some to be one of North America’s 50 best bars. The libations keep pouring on February 7 with a visit from a sworn member of the Singapore mixologist haven Jigger & Pony, followed on March 6 by another bartender who hails from Handshake Speakeasy in Mexico City.
