Bar Pionero is a special corner of Hotel Las Torres where flavors, aromas, sustainability and culinary creativity blend into a perfect finale to your days exploring Torres del Paine National Park.
More than just a journey through Patagonian flavors, Bar Pionero is a sensory adventure in cocktails you will never forget. Head bartender Federico Gil creates innovative libations that combine top-shelf spirits with local ingredients like the Magellan barberry, ñirre (Nothofagus antarctica), rhubarb and wild herbs.
The bar’s environmental commitment is another distinguishing feature. Used bottles are recycled into drinks glasses and bartending tools, extending the useful life of hundreds of kilos of glass each season. Meanwhile, the bar has replaced plastic straws with copper or vegetable straws and swapped compostable waste collection bags for reusable sacks.
Another Bar Pionero pride and joy is an ability to distill alcohol from unserved beer into gin and other handcrafted spirits.
