GIANYAR, balitourismnow.com – Syrco BASÈ in Ubud, a culturally conscious dining destination and world-class bar experience in Ubud, is celebrating the victory of its Bar Manager as it prepares to represent Indonesia on the global stage.
Syrco BASÈ Ubud, led by Michelin-starred chef Syrco Bakker, is proud to celebrate the achievement of its Bar Manager, Arya Dharmayasa, who has been named the #HennessyMyWay Indonesia Regional Winner.
Recognized as one of the best restaurants in Ubud for its commitment to sustainable fine dining, Syrco BASÈ marks this milestone as Arya prepares to represent Indonesia at the #HennessyMyWay Global Finals in France later this year.
Founded to celebrate mindful mixology, #HennessyMyWay encourages bartenders worldwide to rethink the art of cocktailing by incorporating sustainability into unforgettable, ritual-inspired drinks.
From local ingredients and eco-friendly techniques to presentations that honor tradition and culture, this competition rewards those who believe that every pour tells a story—not just about flavor, but also about responsibility.
Arya won with his signature cocktail, “Rethink with Hennessy,” a creation that was both thoughtful and inventive. Rooted in sustainability, this offering is based on the idea of mindfulness, the realization that every decision, no matter how small, has an impact on the world around us.
In Bali, which often feels the tension between rapid modernization and environmental preservation, Arya’s creation is both a reflection and a response, encouraging the younger generation to pause and rethink their role in shaping the island’s future.
“We are not against progress, but we must preserve our nature, traditions, and culture that make Bali unique,” Arya said.
What sets Rethink with Hennessy apart is not only its flavor and presentation, but also its philosophy, which aligns with Syrco BASÈ’s guiding principles: Traceability, Nature, and Transparency (TNT).
Just as Syrco BASÈ ensures that every ingredient tells a story of origin, fairness, and respect, Arya’s cocktails embody the same ethos, tracing inspiration from heritage, respecting the natural environment, and serving with a clear purpose.
The result is a drink that bridges innovation and tradition, celebrating progress while reminding us of the importance of protecting culture and nature for future generations. future.
Arya’s philosophy is based on three pillars that go beyond glass: conscious living, community regeneration, and sustainability.
These values align with the culture of Syrco BASÈ, a conscious dining destination in Bali that blends gastronomy, craftsmanship, and creativity.
His journey to victory is not only personal, but also a testament to the inspiring environment Syrco BASÈ creates among its team, whether through intimate dining experiences in Bali at the KU culinary atelier, the farm-to-table restaurant concept in Ubud, or the innovative Bar Ubud where Arya leads the cocktail program.
This milestone marks an important achievement for Arya as he prepares to bring his expertise and vision to the global stage.
On October 27, 2025, he will compete in France at the #HennessyMyWay Global Final, proudly representing Indonesia among the world’s most visionary bartenders.
“I am incredibly proud of Arya and what he has achieved,” said Chef Syrco Bakker of Syrco BASÈ.
