ABOUT MOJITOP.COM BARS & MOJITOS RECIPES & CURIOSITIES

MOJITOP.COM is just a group of friends rooted in Barcelona, who would like to contribute to improve the level of the mojitos in the city.
We like to do expeditions in the city, and sometimes we invite the blog followers.
If you have suggestions, you are more than welcome to share them with us too!

We like to "conquer" Bars, which means to visit them and evaluate their mojitos.
About barris, we often visit Gràcia, Poble Sec, Raval and Born, but we've also been to more exotic places like Eixample and Barceloneta.

To explore all the possibilities, we also try out different recipes for mojitos and their variations.
Also from time to time we'll report on curisities related to mojitos, like the mojitos we taste in other cities.
Interviews and stories about interesting people are in this blog.

Mojitos at Rossini - talked in to the trap

Adress: Plaça Real 13

Rossini is one of the restaurant/bars in the square that you are bound to pass if you venture in to the Gothic area. Simply put, it´s a tourist trap, but (of course) we got a "special price" (€5 including a free shot) from the guy on the square trying to fill the bar. So we put it through the test.

Despite being a small mojito made of cheap, white rum, it passed the "drinkable" level. Perhaps the small quantity of rum was a good feature. It contained lime and mint, and slightly crushed ice-cubes. It was a refreshing drink on a hot summer night, with a mildly said interesting view on the square at 3 am.

Price: €5
Grade: 5.17 (drinkable)
