"Amphora is the new arrival that, in a small way, clinches Cambridge’s ascension as a food and drink city. It’s always had quality wine bars, especially the service side of the namesake Wine Merchants shop. But — perhaps, in part, due to the fact that the strongest cellars can be found not at restaurants or bars but at the university colleges — the city has been excessively allergic to widening its taste in wine. Step forward Amphora, medical science graduate Cong Cong Bo’s shop and bar named for the ceramic vessel probably most famous for its role in ageing Georgian orange wines. The bar boasts an impossibly, brilliantly broad list that spans Portugal, Georgia, Armenia, Greece, and Moldova." - James Hansen
