Tanqueray London Dry is considered by many to be the benchmark of London Dry Gin. The recipe still uses the same combination of four botanicals discovered by Charles Tanqueray in 1830. Using the purest neutral grain alcohol and the finest botanicals: juniper, angelica, liquorice and coriander, the fourth and final distillation

takes place in the infamous Old Tom still.

Bar Manager’sWelcome

Contents

As one of the first cocktail bars in the city, Jigger & Pony’s core has always been based on Classic Cocktails and Convivial Hospi-tality. When we opened in 2012, it was to an emerging cocktail scene, but Singapore has since progressed dramatically with the introduction of more sophisticated imbibing experiences and world class bartenders.

This timely relocation has given us an opportunity to enhance our space and bar programme. In a highly mature cocktail world, we’re excited to showcase an innovative menu that’s relevant and still keeps true to our classic roots.

What I am also excited about is leadinga fine team, already well-oiled from our days on Amoy Street. As described on Asia’s 50 Best Bars, the team are “warm and welcoming” and able to create “a buzzy atmosphere that’s convivial but never rowdy.”

In this new menu that you hold, we delve deep into various categories of Classics, thoughtfully revised with forward-think-ing craft. Expect ingredients that are both inquisitive yet approachable in flavour. Curated by a multi-cultural group of bartenders from Italy, Japan, Korea, Malaysia and Singapore, we have ourselves a strong and diverse identity that’s evident across this menu.

So who the hell still drinks classics? Timeless concoctions with boundless possibilities? We do.

Who the hell still drinks classics?

Old Fashioned

The first documented definition of a “cocktail” and the “Old Fashioned” are one and the same -a potent concoction of spirits, bitters, water, and sugar.

Already considered old fashioned in the 19th century, and famously Don Draper’s cocktail of choice in Mad Men (set in 1960s New York), it seems like the Old Fashioned is not likely to fall out of fashion anytime soon. It remains the best-selling cocktail here at Jigger & Pony.

Popular in the 1700s during the era of swashbuckling pirates, the Bumbo predates even the Old Fashioned. This Bumbo is an ode to Sugarhall and all the rum lovers who gathered there.

Classic Classic

Classic

Classics vs Signatures “We serve classic cocktails here,” summed up nicely by the bartender,

addressing a customer across the bar.

There’s little to contend with that statement, seeing that Jigger & Pony has become home to classic cocktails (and fresh interpretations of the same) since our first day of operations. In an industry that clamours to create something completely new or different, Jigger & Pony always goes back to the classics,

tried and true.

Long-time customers at Jigger & Pony will be all too familiar with the grid-like cocktail menu that features classic and vintage cocktails next to our signature iterations. As a nod to our original menu, we highlight three classics versus

their corresponding signatures here.

Tokyo-HiNikka Coffey Gin, umeshu,shiso peppermint, gari, soda

A highball with all the exuberance of Tokyo, with the inclusion of Japanese fruits and liqueurs. This cocktail reflects the dazzling atmosphere of Japan’s capital, as well as its love for food and aesthetics.

Whisky HighballSuntory Chita Whisky, Hokkaido super soft water, carbonated

Classic to the point of iconic in Japan, the modest whisky highball is the go-to drink for many. Following a Japanese technique maewari, the whisky is mixed with super soft water for at least three days. This renders the flavour of the whisky more pronounced, yet smoother on the palate.

Madame PresidentMonkey 47 Gin, kaffir dry vermouth, orchid and bittermelon liqueur, Campari lollipop

A shout-out to our Head of State, the first female President of Singapore. This floral twist on the Negroni is inspired by the sights and scents of Singapore’s Botanic Gardens.

NegroniTanqueray London Dry Gin, Cinzano Rosso, Campari

An Italian classic named after, and created, by Count Negroni. It takes a charming and eccentric individual to swap out soda for gin in his Americano!

PinnacleBulleit Bourbon, peated Nanyang Coffee liqueur, blend of fortified wines

Named after the 50-storey residential estate in Singapore’s city centre, the Pinnacle is our answer to the Brooklyn, injected with the flavour and aroma of local coffee.

BrooklynRittenhouse Rye, Dolin Dry Vermouth, Amer Picon, Luxardo Maraschino

Part of a series of five cocktails named after the boroughs of New York City, the Brooklyn may not get as much of the lime-light as its illustrious sister the Manhattan. But like the borough it’s named after, the Brooklyn has an understated character.

Phraya Rum, lemongrass, clarified granny smith apple juice, Campari, lime

Lately it’s not unusual to see local adap-tations of international classic cocktails in bars, especially in Asia. This trend continues to grow and take the whole continent by storm. As native ingredients and flavours become increasingly niche, they add an all-new dimension to cocktails that have otherwise remain unchanged for many years.

On the other hand, we still see popular Asian Classics, like the Singapore Sling and the Jungle Bird, maintain their questionable reputation of being low craft cocktails with sticky sweet flavours. We hope to not only elevate these Asian Classics but also bring them back to Asia with the use of Asian ingredients.

Asian Classics with Asian Twists

JAPAN – Bringing this cocktail back home to Yokohama, the Western influences are replaced with Japanese ones through the use of ingredients such as awamori (instead of vodka) and kumquat (instead of orange juice).

INDONESIA – A savoury version of the original classic, the inspiration came from a beloved Indonsiansnack “onde-onde” – sesame covered mochi with a sweet filling.

SINGAPORE – The Singapore Sling is evocative of the early 1900s when it was invented at Raffles Hotel. At that time, Amoy Street (Jigger & Pony’s first location) was infamous for its opium dens. We reminisce this bygone era with the addition of smoky lapsang souchong.

MALAYSIA – Created at the Aviary Bar in Hilton KL in the 1970s, the Jungle Bird is a tiki cocktail centred around strong spirits, with a bitter bite of Campari. This rendition scales back the richness of the original Jungle Bird to create a lighter, more palatable version.

“We hope to not only elevate these Asian Classics but also bring them back to Asia with the use of Asian ingredients.”

6 Shiraz MartinezFour Pillars Bloody Shiraz Gin, Cinzano Rosso, Luxardo Maraschino, orange bitters

An Old-World recipe meets a New-World gin. The Martinez has been described as the great grandfather of the Martini, whilst Four Pillars’ Bloody Shiraz Gin pushes the envelope in the gin world.

Obsessed with the Martini“A Martini please. Gin, not shaken, very cold, dry, and with a lemon twist. Oh, and make it two for the table please.”

We are all familiar with the exacting standards of Martini drinkers. There seems to be little room for creative flourish with the ‘King of Cocktails’. Yet bartenders are begging to differ - the Martini as a base cocktail in fact makes for an excellent vehicle for flavour.

In a Martini, you get unadulterated aromas of herbs, nuances of sweetness and umami, and a new appreciation of subtle colours in an elegant glass. The Martinis of today have changed. So again, make it two for the table please.

Silk MartiniKetel One Vodka, Dolin Dry Vermouth, grapefruit, clarified earl grey milk punch

For added finesse, try the Silk Martini. Apart from the citrusy notes of the grape-fruit, this martini also has an added silky texture from the clarified milk punch.

In our rendition of the dirty martini, the savoury and briny notes from the olives are complemented by the vibrant basil aroma.

A smooth and earthy martini. Our sake vermouth is made in-house using botanicals such as shiso leaf, angelica root, and citrus peels.

Herbaceous and fresh, clean and dry – the herbs in this cocktail are sourced locally from Citizen Farm. These include tarragon, cologne mint, and butterfly sorrel.

What’s your inspiration behind the Dry Rob Roy?

I love Manhattans and Rob Roys, but I’ve always felt that the dry versions of these were somehow less tasty and balanced than the originals. And so, I’m always thinking about how to improve these cocktails. Here, I balance the sweetness from liquorice with the savoury notes from mushroom bitters and Talisker 10 Scotch Whisky.

Let’s talk about the Stinger; it’s not the most crowd-pleasing cocktail.

It may not be, but there’s just something magical about it! The initial peppermint taste is like a slap in the face (reminiscent of the menthol taste you’d find in tooth-paste), but as your palate gets accustomed to the mint, the flavour of the cognac begins to come through.

We decided to “deconstruct” or split the drink in two. First, the spherified pepper-mint water bursts in your mouth (like the flavour burst of a classic Stinger). Then, as one sips the drink, it blends with the lingering peppermint taste.

“The idea is not to show off the tech-niques we’re using, but to use modern techniques to bring classic cocktails back to life,” says Giovanni Graziadei (affection-ately known as G). Taking three classic cocktails that are not as well known or popular, G gives them a twist, and reimagines them into a modern era.

Classic Cocktails, Reimagined

Toreador

Created in 1937 (prior even to the Margarita), this classic tequila cocktail is enhanced using freeze-dried yoghurt to give it a silky texture and an extra layer of flavour.

Don Julio Blanco Tequila, Merlet Apricot, freeze-dried yoghurt, lime, egg white

Stinger

With a fragrance similar to the smell of violets, the orris is infused in the cognac. This is then paired with frankincense – an essential oil commonly found in rich fragrances.

Q&A

Dry Rob Roy

Although differing in sweetness compared to the original, this cocktail is clarified to give the same smooth mouthfeel of a classic Rob Roy.

Created in 2011 at New York speakeasy Death & Co., this absolutely modern classic is given a bubbly, spritz twist. Two pivotal components in this classic, bitter herbal liquors and mezcal, have been gaining much traction in the cocktail renaissance of the 21st Century.

Retro Classics

Woo Woo

Jigger & Pony Classics

Through the six years at 101 Amoy Street, Jigger & Pony has become a place where people can find comfort, forge friendships, and share happiness. To celebrate the good times at our first home, we present a selection of some favourite cocktails.

A relatively new entry, the Yuzu Whiskey Sour debuted on our menu two years ago, and is now a hot favourite among men and women alike.

The Woo Woo has a nose of artificial peach and alcohol, and on the tongue an initial cloying sweetness gives way to more cloying sweet-ness and a strong artificial peach. The finish is short, and, er, sweet. The cocktail is given an extra dimension with the crunchy texture that comes from your teeth falling out after the second or third sip. For extra shame, you can scream “Woo Woo” like a demented, dragged-up Thomas the Tank Engine before drinking it.

-Reprinted from Oh Gosh! (ohgo.sh)

Every bar apprentice aspires to master making the abinsthe jelly, like mastering the tamago in Jiro Dreams of Sushi.

Fun fact: this cocktail was created by Guoyi and Hannah Waters for a competition in 2013!

Mocktails, zero-proof, or virgin cocktails – there are several ways to describe a booze-free cocktail.

Whether you’re a teetotaller 24/7 or you’re going through a self-imposed dry month, these zero-proofers are perfect for you.

The Team

A Pony never lets another Pony fail. That is the ethos with which this team lives by; whether they are competition-winning bartenders or fresh-faced apprentices, or whether they are doing behind-the-scenes prep work or working an exceedingly hectic Friday night shift.

That can be easier said than done, though. More than half a dozen different nationalities make up the team, each with their own language, customs, and approach to hospi-tality. The tall task of getting this diverse team to play the beauti-ful game of hospitality lie on Bar Manager Jerrold Khoo and Principal Bartender Giovanni Graziadei.

“The whole team is really close, even if the roles we play are differ-ent,” shares Jerrold. “We work on building each other’s strengths and we respect everyone for what they bring to the table. It also helps that we all fancy a drink or two, and are united by our love for dong bei cai.”

Come meet the Ponies. We would love to serve you a good drink!

Follow her on @fundamentally_flawed for more recommendations

In a city that’s so obsessed with food, making a choice can be daunting. So I’ve distilled the best the neighbouring precincts have to offer. All these within a hop, skip and a jump away. Strap on those walking shoes if you’re on a pursuit of ‘shiok-ness’.

A bar crawl in this part of town is the ultimate pick ’n’ mix for any parched individual. It’s also great for anyone who appreciates the minimum travel time necessary between venues. Take my lead, experience Tanjong Pagar’s little slice of New Orleans at Junior, then hop on over to Neon Pigeon for some grungy izakaya vibes. Singapore has come a long way from being a post-shift, shoddy shots, cheap beer town, with new bars constantly opening to build on this repertoire. Traverse across the lush park connecter and arrive at Jigger & Pony affiliated bars housed within a refurbished shophouse - there’s Flagship, Gibson and Humpback, where you’ll find countless libation options for every occasion.

Tanjong Pagar being one of the most iconic neigh-bourhoods in the city, has wealth, influence and style well reflected in its restaurants. Whichever corner you turn, you’ll be entertained by Singapore’s gastro-nomical playground. Burgers, Korean BBQ, or even handmade Pasta; the precinct lives to please the most finicky of tastebuds. After a round of drinks, the hunger pangs start to kick in. Supper suggestions? We’ve got plenty, all within a drunkard stagger of these watering holes.

Fancy something a little different? You’re in the right place. All you need do, is ask this motley crew.

Celebrations should not end with you feeling broke af after the party dust settles. A great Scotch with a good age statement is an awesome choice that doesn’t require you to break the bank.

Too many choices and 40-page menus make it difficult to pick the perfect spirit, but we’ve created a guideline to help combat the “paradox of choice”. Here are nine different occasions for a night on the town, and the perfect spirit to top it all off.

It’s a single malt, but it’s American; it’s not bourbon, it’s not a Scotch. What is it that you want, boss, what do you want??

They put this here because they literal-ly want to drink this. If you meet a guy named Rhyse at the bar, he might buy you a shot too!
