About our Classic Jungle Bird

This cocktail is said to have been created in the late 1970s at the Aviary Bar of the Hilton in Kuala Lumpur. After the Mai Tai, the Jungle Bird comes to mind when we think of the Tiki era. The depth of dark rum, the bitterness of bitter liquor and the freshness of pineapple juice will allow you to understand how bitterness has its place in fruity cocktails.
