Sips Across Asia

Fairmont Pacific Rim is excited to announce Sips Across Asia, the next chapter of the Sips series, hosted across two of the hotel’s bars: Botanist Bar and The Lobby Lounge. After a summer highlighting Canada’s top cocktail bars, the series now looks across the Pacific to some of Asia’s most celebrated, beginning with Taipei’s To Infinity and Beyond for two nights only, November 22 and 23, 2026.

To Infinity and Beyond’s founder Mars Chang and bartender Ming Chieh Liu will pop-up at Botanist Bar on Sunday, November 22 and The Lobby Lounge on Monday, November 23. Since opening in 2019, To Infinity and Beyond has become one of Taiwan’s most talked-about bars, climbing to No. 35 on Asia’s 50 Best Bars 2026. The bar is known for its space-themed drinks, dedicated to the refined art of liquid. They use modern scientific techniques such as rotary evaporation and centrifugation, grounded in ingredients from everyday life. Its current menu, The Timeless Texture-flowing, explores the texture of a cocktail across three chapters: Creaminess, Clarification and Carbonation.

No tickets or reservations required—just arrive thirsty.
