Cuando el café, el helado y el brandy hablan el mismo idioma. Nuestro Affogato cobra una nueva dimensión con @terry_spain Centenario.
Fragmentos de la historia de Dry Martini. Entre ginebras, recuerdos y algún que otro récord.
Los clásicos también evolucionan. Una reinterpretación de nuestro Smoked Berries, elaborada con @piscodemoniodelosandes_es y una combinación de frutos rojos, cítricos y sutiles notas ahumadas.
El placer de las cosas bien hechas. Un Dry Martini preparado al momento con @bombaysapphirees , ostras frescas recién abiertas por @ostraslouis y una barra que lleva décadas perfeccionando el mismo ritual. Así fue Dry Martini & Oysters.
Hay lugares que no solo forman parte de la historia de una ciudad… se convierten en parte de su identidad. 🍸 Desde 1978, Dry Martini es mucho más que una coctelería: es un símbolo de la Barcelona elegante, creativa y nocturna. Un templo del cóctel donde cada detalle cuenta y donde nació Speakeasy,
