While here in Florence, I tried to visit some well-regarded cocktail bars. The scene has certainly improved recently -- or I was more diligent in my research.
Manifattura is a small bar not far from the familiar Il Latini restaurant of my past. I love that this bar’s approach is that it uses only liquor that is manufactured in Italy. The drink I chose to try is the Anacapri, made with Gin Ginarte, Campari Bitter, pink grapefruit juice, Rosolio di Bergamotto Italicus, and Varnelli Anice Secco. Luckily the anise flavor was subtle. The drink was delicious and refreshing.
Manifattura opens at 6pm, making it easy to go there before dinner.
