Balblair '19-46%
The palate if full and creamy with the characteristic balblair orchard and citrus fruits at the fore. Layers of chocolate, stewed fruits, christmas pudding and rich vanilla sauce follow before a long finish of coconut and vanilla caramel. A wonderfully rich and decadent celebratory dram
Dalmore 12 Year Old-40%
Aged for the first nine years in american white cake-bourbon casks, before half is transferred to ex-oloroso sherry casis for the final three years. The result is a whisky with a combination of sweetness and rich, sherried flavours.
Deanston Virgin Oal-46.3%
Deanston virgin oak is made with young whisky which has been finished in brand new oak casks from kentucky, being so fresh, the oak really shines through with flavours of vanilla, lemon zest, fresh apples and spices (particularly nutmeg)

We arrived at this bar and were sat pretty quickly. They have outdoor heaters and provide you with blankets also. I enjoyed the atmosphere and the prices weren't too high. I had mocktails and the drinks still looked and tasted great. Although they ran out of the banana leaf, for the drink called Banana Old Fashion, the group really enjoyed them but they just didn't look as pretty by the end of the night. One thing that made me drop a star is the amount of time that it took to bring out the drinks. It is far too long and would suggest that maybe an extra mixologist is on site on busy nights. Another thing that made me drop the star is the cleanliness of the toilets, it wasn't really up to scratch and the smell was...

Arrived about 9ish on a Friday night and place was filling up quite quickly. DJ playing some cool boogie, modern dance tunes. A couple of 20 something groups filed in, by ut were served quite quickly and disappeared to the upstairs area. I had a very well prepared Negroni ( my favourite) and my 3 friends chose something else from the quite extensive cocktail menu. We were lucky 4 people left their table as we arrived, so got a good table near the bar. Popular place. I'd go back for the quality cocktails, service and the music. I'd recommend getting a table early if you are thinking of having a bender here.also, some outside seating...

From interior design perspective, Kismet Bar is the place offering the inspiring.

The space was created into welcoming & mysterious atmosphere, it triggers my curiosity for discovering the space.

The most impressive point is more than decorating style here, the owner put the history of Nelson city inside of the materials he chose. If curious about the connection between the old pieces of wine barrel wood on the bar bench and the old painting on the wall? Go to ask the owner.

Meaningful interior design should fill the cultural contents inside the space, beside the colour scheme, materials and decorations etc. here it is for one...

Incredibly knowledgeable staff. We happened by one late afternoon after procuring some excellent local cheeses and charcuterie at neighboring Cooks Corner (and who mentioned that we should try Kismet). Justin and Matt educated us on the regional whiskeys and their rare international stock of whiskeys. In addition to whiskeys, their current offerings include many creative craft cocktails and food items (we ordered the blue cheese and honey flat bread). Casual, dark and cozy atmosphere, with limited outdoor sidewalk cafe seating. Highly recommended. Summary: excellent offerings, amazing staff.
