Kiev

Kiev is undoubtedly leading the charge when it comes to Ukrainian cocktail culture. Although the city has many great bars, one stands out above the rest: The Alchemist. Situated near the busy area of Arena City, the bar has certainly made its mark on the city – despite being relatively new. Spread across three rooms (one of which can only be accessed through a bookcase), the bar serves a range of innovative and creative cocktails, all to the sound of live music.
