This year we have not gone very far to throw the last one, in fact, as we already told you, the best bar in the world is the one that is under your house. But, this 2022 we also promise to take you a little further. Are you coming?
The last 15 years have given so that one of the most prestigious awards, as far as drinks and bars are concerned, have created the map of the best cocktail bars in the world . A total of 900 winners and nominees in the awards Spirited Awards since 2007 they appear in this interactive global directory created to guide us in the future nights of the year, and why not, trips of 2022.
The organization Tales of the Cocktail Foundation's Spirited Awards , whose purpose is to educate, promote and support the global hospitality industry, has created this easy-to-use map to plan which bars to visit in your city or when you travel . It was done as a result of the presentation of its winners of the year, which are usually announced at the end of summer, and also seeing that there was currently no tool with these characteristics.
The map of the best cocktail bars in the world.
"We investigated the websites of these places, their social networks, addresses and latitude and longitude coordinates for each location, as well as whether the locations were permanently closed," they underline Traveler.es.
And that makes all the sense in the world if we take into account how many bars have had to close during the pandemic, -only on the map we counted 80-. Even so, Spirited Awards He has not wanted to eliminate them from the list due to their prestige and years of work. It has been a recognition to leave them on the map, or perhaps they hope that they will reopen their doors in a while. But don't worry, because the Map is also prepared to notify us of those establishments that are currently closed.
“Each permanently closed location can be easily found by filtering through the directory. TOTCF and the Spirited Awards committee thought it was important to include these places in recognition of so many years of work,” they add.
