Description
Poncha is dead! Long live the Poncha!
This must be the guiding idea from this self-proclaimed "King of Poncha" Bar. It's a small bar with a charming terrace serving their Ponchas to thirsty peasants, ladies, and knights alike.
Situated in the historical city center, it attracts many travelers from far and close. Maybe because this bar is renowned for serving 'poncha by the meter,' consisting of 17 shots in a row. And let me tell you this as a man who has tried to drink them all. You will definitely be feeling like a real king wanting to conquer some southern territories.
Additionally, it offers the largest variety of poncha, blending different types of fresh fruits, deviating from the traditional recipe.
However, our rating is lower due to a lack of authenticity and because it's a tiny bit too touristy. In any case, go and try to 17 shots of pure madness:)
