Opened in the upscale neighborhood of Cheongdam, Seoul, in December 2020, ZEST marked a significant leap of faith for seasoned bartender Demie Kim, who leads the operation alongside co-founders Jisu Park, Sean Woo, and Noah Kwon. Despite initial concerns about the appeal of a sustainability-focused bar, their fears were soon allayed.
Just one year later, ZEST earned a spot on Asia’s 50 Best Bars list. In 2023, ZEST achieved even greater recognition, jumping a record-breaking 43 spots to become Asia’s No. 5 bar, being named the best bar in Korea, and securing the No. 18 spot on the global list — the highest new entry that year.
