Review of Röda Huset – by Cocktailguiden S.

The hottest cocktail bar is the Red House at Sergels Torg, if we can believe "World's 50 Best Bars" who named it "One to Watch", ie the bar in the world that is most likely to enter the top-50 list. We have to check for ourselves what the fuss was about. The room is delicious, especially in the evening when the fountain outside the window is lit, and the decorations are reminiscent of the forest. It is no coincidence as the ingredients are local, which means, for example, that there is no citrus. So we got the cocktail Mountain Birch, which is almost a Dry Martini that smells like forest! And a rowan berry from Norrland, which is a Swedish Negroni! This is the most exciting cocktail menu we've tried since The Aviary in Chicago! Not particularly surprising since it is Hampus Thunholm, "best bartender" in 2019 and 2020, who is behind it. However, you cannot get cocktail classics, so it is important that everyone in the company has an open mind and dares to try something new.
