Fura, located on Amoy Street, has gained international acclaim after being recognized by The Pinnacle Guide, a new global bar-ranking system that evaluates top bars worldwide. This system, launched in May 2024, mirrors the Michelin guide for restaurants and awards bars with one, two, or three PINs, with three being the highest accolade.
As Singapore’s sustainability-focused bar, Fura was awarded two PINs in the most recent evaluation by The Pinnacle Guide. It was one of 20 newly recognized bars across various regions, including the United States, the United Kingdom, Spain, and the Middle East. Notably, Fura is the only Asian bar on this prestigious list, placing Singapore’s cocktail scene firmly on the global map.
Fura’s recognition comes from its innovative approach to sustainability and eco-conscious drinking. Led by Christina Rasmussen and Sasha Wijidessa, the bar uses local, low-carbon-footprint ingredients to craft its unique menu. Ingredients such as insect proteins, cell-cultured milk, and coffee made from burdock roots and hemp seeds may sound unconventional, but they are woven into sophisticated, flavorful cocktails. Fura also uses abundant produce like jellyfish, bananas, and corn, ensuring that environmental responsibility is at the heart of its offerings.
For eco-conscious drinkers, Fura offers a perfect balance of creative mixology and planet-friendly practices. The bar’s commitment to sustainability has not only garnered attention from The Pinnacle Guide but also reinforced Singapore’s growing reputation as a hub for world-class, environmentally conscious bars.
The Pinnacle Guide evaluates bars on six key criteria: the quality of the menu, staff welfare, ambience, service, sustainability efforts, and overall guest experience. This holistic approach ensures that bars like Fura are recognized not only for their drinks but also for creating an exceptional and ethical guest experience.
The global recognition from The Pinnacle Guide is just the beginning for Fura. With submissions for new entries to the guide open until November 30, Fura’s innovative, sustainable approach to mixology serves as an inspiring example for other bars in Singapore and beyond.
