Bars for Shanghai's booze monogamists
The best Shanghai bars married faithfully to a single type of alcohol
Long known as the “Whore of the Orient,” Shanghai might appear no place for a monogamist. But a few local watering holes show there’s still a place for the hopelessly romantic alcoholic.
The skinny: each venue below is the best place to enjoy your favorite tipple straight up; no mixology here.
Gracias, pour me a: Don Julio Anejo (RMB 138).
Tequila: Yucca
This venue may not have the most extensive list around, but it’s one of the best in the city and is located in one of Shanghai's most stylish new addresses: Sinan Mansions. And, an Australian-owned, Kiwi-run bar selling Mexican liquor in China allows you to marvel over the state of today’s world while you sip.
Bartender Rich Clarke gave us a rundown from Spanish Conquistadors to today’s premium pure agave spirits, which are more smooth and subtle than the stuff that used to haunt the spring breaks of your misspent youth.
