Concession & Bar Swahili: water

MAJI

The Essence of Every Pour.

Maji means "water" in Swahili, inspired by the element at the heart of every drink. Water is life, the foundation that brings ingredients together and the element that transforms flavour. At Maji, this idea comes to life through cocktails, spirits, fruit, flavour and craft, bringing together influences from Africa and beyond. Maji is where every pour begins.
