Lifting the spirits at Hacha Bar<br />

Tequila is one of my all-time favourite tipples, so when the opportunity<br />

arose to sample Hacha Bar's Mirror Margharita, I could hardly refuse.<br />

Tequila is one of my all-time favourite tipples, so<br />

when the opportunity arose to sample Hacha Bar's<br />

Mirror Margarita, I could hardly refuse.<br />

Launched in April 2019 by Tequila Ambassador<br />

Deano Moncrieffe, the idea for Hacha was to bring<br />

Agave to the area, and with an evolving menu of 25<br />

different tequilas, mezcals and lesser known agave<br />

spirits to choose from, I'd say he's succeeded.<br />

We had their signature cocktail, the Mirror<br />

Margarita, which, rather impressively, has been<br />

voted 7th Best Cocktail In The World by Time Out.<br />

Uniquely, the Mirror Margarita is crystal clear – quite<br />

different from your standard, cloudy Margarita. In<br />

terms of flavour, it’s deliciously – and dangerously<br />

– moreish. There's also a selection of wine and beer,<br />

although with such an array of tequilas to choose<br />

from, I doubt I'd be tempted. It’s all about the<br />

tequilahhh for me.<br />

Aside from the cocktails, I was impressed with the<br />

fact that Hacha uses shredded beef and chicken in<br />

their tacos; anyone familiar with authentic Mexican<br />

food will know that this is a sure sign that they know<br />

what they are doing - no mince to be found here!<br />

Hacha’s interior is bright and welcoming, and<br />

Deano is friendly and generous with his extensive<br />

knowledge. Well worth a visit for tequila lovers and,<br />

if you're a tequila virgin, this is a great place to take<br />

the plunge.<br />
