Cocktail Bar

Mitch e Amaro's centerpiece bar is an integral part of the store in both form and function, separating the retail in the front from the lounge in the back. The bartender is an active participant in the shopping experience, able to answer questions or demonstrate tools and techniques, and always ready to pour a sample. Bottles behind the bar are the same as those on the shelves (with a few exceptions).
