4th February 2017 is when 2nd Edition of Delhi Cocktail Week kicked off with a launch party at The Darzi Bar & Kitchen, 8 days, 30 + Bars and countless memories!
DCW was conceptualized to bring together cocktails enthusiasts, alcohol connoisseurs to raise the status of cocktails, beers, & wines in various parts of the country and to recognize the skill of our bartenders. It is a great way for consumers to savor delectable cocktails learn the basics of spirits and to appreciate the effort and the thought bartenders put behind each & every drink they curate.
