Botanist bar by Shangri-La Paris

Here, the Bartender in Chief Arnaud Thirel wanted to pay tribute to Prince Roland Bonaparte, former owner of the private mansion where the current Palace was built. Roland also was the creator of the largest private herbarium in the world with more than 2 500 00 species. At the Botanist bar, you can choose between 15 delicious homemade cocktails, but also between 23 prestigious Gins, rare and forgotten alcohols as Absinth, Chartreuse and Génépi. You will love the "Zacao" (Zacapa rum, Vermouth, cocoa and Sichuan pepper syrup), the "Bumble Bee" (Cognac, lavender honey, lemon, Tonka bean, crunchy wafer) as well as the "Cyrus" (Vodka with dark lemon from Iran and Jean de Lillet).

The Vintage New York Lifestyle

This temple of sophistication and vintage, as elegant as Rock'n'Roll, takes place on four floors including one dedicated to Champagne. At the heart of the very trendy East Village neighborhood, you can comfortably sit on mellow armchairs and benches, admiring the pictures of famous rockers and jazzmen in a setting straight out of prohibition, also offering some Pop Art and Art Deco touches. The cocktails, really well presented, are going from "Banana Boat" (Bourbon, banana crisp, coriander syrup, pepper, pineapple, lemon) to "Rosalie" (Agave alcohol, tequila, thyme liquor, watermelon syrup) passing by "Randolphs Tango" (Agave alcohol, chamomile syrup, grapefruit, pineapple, lemon, pink pepper).

The Experimental Cocktail Club

This Cocktail bar hidden in Montorgueil neighborhood has become a genuine reference in Paris, furnishing the mini-bars of the most trendy hotels as the Grand Pigalle. We love its filtered lights, exposed stones, chandeliers hanging from the ceiling, old New York bar atmosphere and really original creations that you can find in a beautiful book. Our favorite ones are the "Tommy's Margarita Especial" (tequila, green lemon, organic agave honey with bourbon vanilla, cloves) and the "Bee's Kiss" (Jamaican rum, cream, organic floral honey, Indonesian pepper).

Columbus Cocktail Bar in Faro

Go straight to Portugal where you will need more than one night to discover the numerous cocktails from the Columbus. The cocktail list has no end between local blends with sunny fruits, homemade cocktails with rare alcohols and plants, "Cosmopolitan", "Daiquiri" and other classics perfectly blended, exotic cocktails presented in empty pineapples, hot cocktails (grog, mulled wine, Irish Coffee...), free-alcohol cocktails and sexy cocktails as "Orgasm" and "Pornstar Martini". You will drink them in a design setting with exposed stones, enjoying the beautiful terrace under the arcades giving sight on Faro's Marina.
