El Floridita.
My visit to the cigar festival was a flop but don’t get me wrong; Cuba in and of itself, is quite a nice place, really. Places like the so-called Hemingway bar more than made up for the unpleasant Habanos festival.
American author Ernest Hemingway was a regular at Bodeguita del Medio and the Dos Hermanos where he drank Mojitos, and at El Floridita where he helped create the Daiquiri.
El Floridita – the cradle of the Daiquiri – exudes a fin-de-siècle ambiance:
Daiquiris being made.
The man himself.
Mojitas can be found everywhere as well.
