In Spain we have a deep-rooted habit of going to bars and pubs after work and on weekends. However, only one of our stores (the Dry Martini in Barcelona) is on the list of the 50 best bars on the planet that the magazine has released these days «Drinks International«. Specifically, this Barcelona bar is at number 34.
