1. “Silencio” (Silence) 
A serene composition: vodka infused with coconut oil, thyme syrup, mandarin lemon juice, and soda. It’s a refined balance of citrusy brightness, herbal tranquility, and a silky texture—like a quiet whisper of calm amidst the city’s hustle. “Silencio” is the perfect cocktail to invite a moment of peace and reflection.
2. “Niebla” (Mist)
An ethereal cocktail for those who appreciate sophistication: 8-year aged mezcal, poleo herb syrup, and mandarin lemon. The smoky, earthy notes of the mezcal harmonize with the refreshing herbal and citrus tones, evoking the serene feeling of a misty morning sunrise over the valley.
3. “Sabroso” (Tasty)
This bold blend combines a red wine reduction with berries, mandarin lemon juice, mint syrup, vodka, and tonic. “Sabroso” is a celebration in a glass. Fruity, sweet, herbaceous, and refreshingly tangy, it’s a cocktail that tastes like joy and is meant to be shared.
4. “Revelación Rubí” (Ruby Revelation)
This drink is a true revelation of flavors: rye bourbon, corozo (a tropical Colombian fruit) syrup, pineapple extract, and lemon juice. The woody warmth of the bourbon is beautifully paired with the exotic, tropical sweetness of the fruits. Each sip is a burst of radiant flavor, as vibrant as Medellín’s skyline at dusk.
5. “Intrigo” (Intrigue) – The Signature Mocktail
For those who prefer a non-alcoholic option, the “Intrigo” is a masterpiece of flavor. This refreshing and aromatic mocktail blends mint, lemon juice, and soda, offering a clean, spiced, and effervescent profile. It proves that sophisticated mixology can be just as exciting without alcohol, offering a delightful experience for everyone.
