While in Barcelona, we did drink mostly wine and cava. And that isn't a bad thing. However we did stumble across this Martini bar that is well worth the trip. Dry Martini is a fantastic speakeasy like bar in the l'Eixample district of Barcelona. They have over 60 gins (the best and biggest selection I have ever seen) and over 300 cocktails (not all appear on Menus the bartender told us). They even have the original gin martini recipe painted on a mirror behind the bar. (It might surprise you what it really is)
The service is fantastic and the atmosphere is elegant yet comfortable. Ask the bartender to make you a specialty cocktail. I guarantee it will rival any "mixologist" drink you have had in New York. I will warn you however, that the smoke gets really thick after midnight, so if you don't like smoke go early. Carrer Aribau 162-166
