Tamango

The namesake specialty of Tamango is a must for whoever wants to enjoy a party night in Turin. The ruby-coloured Tamango cocktail with high alcohol content has ancient African origins, and it was imported to the city during the 1980s. The recipe is still a closely guarded secret: the obscure ingredients are thought to have hallucinogenic effects. This tiny and arcane bar is renowned in the entire city, making it a perfect stop-over before heading to the clubs.
