The interior of the bar is decorated with the theme of cruise, the bar area uses elegant dark green as the basic color, the simple geometric lines of decorative lights bring a slightly avant-garde art style to the space, and the lounge area is like a small club, the luxurious English red sofa is soft and comfortable, and the seats are spacious and the environment is relatively quiet.

Paddington is a clear embodiment of Raven's creative style, its taste level is very complex, it is based on Earl Grey gin, with brown cocoa, lime juice, syrup, chocolate bitter tincture and orange peel jam, unlike most soaking wines that only have a light herbal flavor, Harbour's cocktail has a very strong taste of Earl Grey, you can feel the rich tea aroma and bitterness in the mouth, it is very unique, and the fragrant and fruity flavor of orange peel jam balances the bitterness of the tea and chocolate tincture. Finally, the aroma of chocolate and tea brings out a hint of aftertaste, so those who are looking for a sense of complexity may wish to try it.
Most bars in Hangzhou don't have a rugged men's flavor in their home-created liquors, but Harbour's Age of Discovery is one such wine, the base of which is Myers's Rum, which is infused with yerba mate and Myers's Rum, which is based on the rich coffee aroma tia maria, the complex herbaceous Montenero and the Spanish sherry with a hint of walnut, without any sweet and sour ingredients, the taste is thicker and more serious, and it is also very complex. Among them, Myers's Rum is a rum that is closer to the original sugar cane flavor, with yerba mate has a special exotic style, establishing a rough and bitter tone, the coffee mellow stretches the taste space of the rum, and the herbal flavor gives the wine a richer and delicate layer, so the body of the wine is rough but the aftertaste is long, just like the crew of the Age of Discovery, a slightly bitter but expansive mood.
Ladies who prefer a low-alcohol drink can also try other floral and fruity cocktails, such as Aggie's Valentine's Harbour, which is romantic and lively with Australian red wine and strawberry puree, and rich fruity flavours such as homemade eucalyptus leaf vermouth, orange juice, passion fruit syrup and lemon juice to expand the red wine flavor.
