During this week, the city becomes the world capital of cocktails, the art of

mixing flavors and concentrating them, like an alchemist, in a magical drink

.

And " eno-gastro-cultural

mix and agitation

" is generating the

Madrid Cocktail Week, the great international

event around the world of cocktails and mixology that -organized by Neodrinks and with the support of the Madrid City Council- starts

this Monday 26th September its fifth edition

.

Its objective is clear: to bring people from Madrid closer to the culture of the team and the new trends in this sector, which is experiencing a

boom

in our city .

Thus, for a week (

Michelin stars such as Coque

For example, routes involving

more than 80 establishments that have created half a thousand drinks for the occasion

The latest in cocktail innovation meets in the capital.

The event connects directly with the world of culture, such as the

, for example, to the Fridays chain, which brings the cocktail world closer with the twenty drinks on its menu and

2 for 1 promotions.
