Bascule, Cape Grace's unique whisky bar and wine cellar has a whisky collection of note and its perfect location on the water's edge adjacent to the new yacht marina on the Victoria and Alfred Waterfront, makes it home to Cape Town's yachting personalities.

"Wall displays of rare whiskies, with pride of place given to an inaugural gift of a 50-year old whisky from Glenfiddich, bear testimony to Bascule`s uniqueness in the world of whisky."

Over 400 whiskies from every producing region including Scotland, Ireland, USA, Canada, India and Japan are served from the 11 metre long bar.

A 35 year Springbank, a 22 year Largie Meanoch Islay and a 30 year Bowmore are some of the other rare single-malt whiskies available for consumption at Bascule…not to mention the circa twenty different Bourbons.

CEO of Cape Grace, Charles Brand, who has been the driving force behind this development says: "Bascule is an exciting new facility that will enhance our guests' experience of Cape Grace's genuine hospitality and passion to delight. The combination of wine cellar, variety of whiskies and the interesting mix of local yachting personalities and our hotel guests, encapsulate the unique Bascule experience."
