The Global Drinker — World Bar Guide
Alquímico
Cartagena, Colombia
Alquímico occupies a colonial building in Cartagena's old town, where the bar spreads across three floors and a rooftop. It built its reputation on a farm-to-bar programme that uses local Colombian fruit, herbs and spirits, and it ranked number 3 on the 2026 World's 50 Best Bars list. The room draws a steady international crowd.
