Let’s Party! And if
you love dancing, latino music and vibrant live bands this is your place. Over
the weekend we were at the newly opened Cuba Libre Café & Bar at TREC Kuala
Lumpur. It is reminiscent of a typical Havana bar where the ambiance, music and
people make me want to dance and fire the dance floor. So put on your dancing
shoes and show me some moves.

Cuba Libre Café
& Bar was established back in 2006, where the spirit of South America came
to Singapore at Clarke Quay. Legend has it that the Cuba Libre means rum and
cola with a slice of optional lime, was first invented in 1900 in Havana, Cuba.
It is said that it was drank to toast Cuban freedom from Spanish occupation.

In 2018, they decided to bring the full Latin themed Cuba Libre Café & Bar to the hottest clubbing spot in Kuala Lumpur, TREC KL. Indeed, they showed us how Cubans party by bringing the entertainment team, chef, music, drinks and fun from Cuba.

"My team and I are truly delighted by the opening of Cuba Libre at TREC, Kuala Lumpur. Cuba Libre simply means a concoction of Rum and Cola and we introduced the South American flavours in Singapore in 2006. The Latin flavour oozes vibrancy, togetherness and a beautiful festival. We hope to bring people from all walks of life to Cuba Libre to experience a fun night, filled with music, dance and food, not forgetting our Award-winning cocktail from Singapore, the 'Mojito'." said Puneet Agarwal, Cuba Libre Cafe & Bar Director.

MUST-TRY Cuba Libre
Signature Mojito, the champion of 2009’s Inaugural Bacardi Mojito Fiesta shows
just how the classic tipple should be done. Each mojito is a blend of Mount Gay
dark rum, said to be the world’s oldest rum company; and muddled lime wedges,
brown sugar and mint leaves. A sugarcane stick acts as a garnish. Another
MUST-TRY Mojito Grande Mount Gay Extra Old for extra punch (a slightly fiery
finish with smoky, fruity aromas).
