If you’re a stickler when it comes to cocktails, then you’ve come to the right place: Behind the green door. Here is where you’ll find people at work who feel the same way. Like Maria, who has been working in the upscale bar scene for ten years now and is currently the bar manager of Schöneberg’s Green Door Bar. As a trained product designer, she is passionate about the design of teapots and the right consistency of an espresso martini. Here, she enriches the bar’s cult classic using Botucal Rum with Nitrogen. You probably know Nitro Coffee, well the process has a similar effect on the Espresso Martini, its velvety texture is profoundly different from what other bars pour from the shaker. The nitrogen ensures the taste is even smoother without being too sweet. But nitrogen isn’t the only ingredient with a wow effect. Botucal Mantuano forms the rum base and Barley Shoshu is added, along with hazelnut spirit, maple syrup and coffee — cold brew, of course. The team at the Green Door Bar never stand still and are constantly experimenting to offer new specials. And it’s not just locals who are a fan — the bar has been around for almost thirty (!) years — international guests are regular visitors. Seasonality also plays a role and capturing the flavors that people are craving in the moment inspires the cocktail specials. At the moment, fruity spring flavors such as cherry and plum blossom are on the menu. So whether you’re looking for heralds of spring in a glass, want to wake up the weekend with an espresso martini, or simply want to talk shop about drinks with like-minded people: Behind the green door, you’re in the middle of Berlin and exactly the right place.
