We love to travel, meet, share... But now for our safety and those around us we must modify our routines a bit. It is the best time to show those close to you the incredible host you are, home meetings do not have to be boring or monotonous, it’s enough to have a well selected decoration, a little of imagination and a lot of good taste to create a memorable evening.

We invite you to travel around the world from the comfort of your home with different cocktails, while we recommend some special pieces from our collection chosen by Marta, so you can surprise your guests with the best deco.

Let's start with Asia, our ”Travel bar with Chinese paintings, from the beginning of the XXth century", is perfect to prepare a Soju watermelon punch from Korea, we leave you the recipe:
