"Bar Cham is one of Seoul’s best cocktail bars. The drinks are built around ingredients and traditions from different provinces, so you might try a buckwheat or pine cocktail that actually tastes like Gangwon (grassy, resinous, and a little wild), or a stronger pour built around Andong’s clean, high-proof soju. There are also softer drinks shaped by Jeju’s botanicals, including hallabong citrus, native herbs, and even volcanic rock–infused spirits, that keep things bright. The drinks are great, and you’ll also leave knowing more about Korean geography, especially with bartenders who can walk you through the ingredients in both Korean and English." - Eileen Cho
