Nikka Whisky invites itself to the must-try secret rooftop in Paris
A hanging garden, Japanese cocktails and a 360° view of Paris. This summer, the Maggie Rooftop becomes Nikka Whisky’s elegant playground. And it’s anything but anecdotal.
A summit aperitif
Located on the 9th floor of the Hôtel Rochechouart, the Maggie Rooftop offers a confidential balcony overlooking the Sacré-Cœur. Still relatively discreet in the Parisian landscape, this rooftop unveils an audacious summer program: a cocktail menu signed Nikka Whisky, one of the jewels in the Japanese spirits crown.
Among the new creations: Spicy Maggie blends Nikka Coffey Vodka, chipotle liqueur and ginger beer. A spicy and explosive proposition. Sour Kiss, with Nikka From the Barrel, kumquat and grapefruit, oscillates between tangy sweetness and woody depth.
Each glass becomes an invitation to explore the elegance of Japanese whisky in an airy, intimate setting, where the sunset sets Paris ablaze.
The chic underground of 9ᵉ
Open daily from midday to midnight, Maggie Rooftop is a rare spot in the heart of Pigalle, far from the crowded terraces of the Right Bank. Its green decor, revisited spritz (gentian, rhubarb, apple) and Mediterranean-inspired tapas make it a refreshing alternative to the all-too-visible rooftops.
But it is above all this collaboration with Nikka that gives it a new dimension. It reflects a strong trend: the arrival of whisky d’auteur in Parisian lifestyle venues, between cocktail culture and immersive experience.
The address to remember this summer
If you’re still looking for a place to toast this summer in Paris with a view and distinction, look no further. Maggie Rooftop x Nikka Whisky ticks all the boxes: setting, originality, quality. It’s a spot that should soon be out of the limelight, so you might as well make the most of it… before it goes viral.
