"Amari fans in San Francisco should head to Bar 821 to sample from the bar’s stock of over 200 different amari (yes, you read that right). The bar returned in April 2024 following a four-year closure following the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic. Ring the doorbell at 821 Divis to gain entry, but be forewarned that it’s a seated bar-only with no reservations, and is open Wednesday through Saturday. Still, the “pick your journey” cocktail option where patrons choose a style of cocktail, flavor profile, and base spirit — and bartenders then create a bespoke drink based on your answers — makes it worth a stop if you can." - Paolo Bicchieri, Dianne de Guzman
