Zest Cocktails: in Vicenza, the seven vices and seven virtues of signature drinking

In the elegant heart of Vicenza, among Renaissance palaces and lively squares, there is an address cocktail enthusiasts cannot miss. It’s called Zest Cocktails and, from the very entrance, it makes its intentions clear: here you don’t just come to drink, but to live an experience.

Crossing the threshold, your gaze is captured by a surprising interior design, the result of the owners’ travels and discoveries around the world. Every detail—from colors to lighting, from materials to furnishings—is designed to leave a mark and create an atmosphere that combines cosmopolitan elegance with welcoming warmth. It’s an environment that invites you to stay, to observe, to be enveloped.

The real magic, however, happens behind the counter. Zest’s cocktail list is born from an original and fascinating concept: “7 Vices and 7 Virtues.” Each drink interprets one of the great opposites of the human soul, transforming sins and virtues into surprising flavor combinations. It’s a creative challenge that translates into unique mixes, refined techniques, and meticulously curated presentations.

Among the most striking proposals is a white truffle Martini, a bold combination that wins you over with elegance and aromatic intensity. Those who love great classics will adore their reimagined Bloody Mary, described by many as “the best ever tasted”: perfectly spiced, balanced, and enveloping. But every drink on the menu—from the lustful Superbia to the pure Carità—is an invitation to discover new sensory paths.

Zest’s philosophy is clear: to offer an emotional journey that unites taste, design, and storytelling. Here, every cocktail becomes a narrative, every sip a journey that stimulates both the senses and the mind. The bartenders’ skill, always ready to personalize proposals and guide guests in their choices, makes the evening even more special.

Whether you are a local from Vicenza in search of a refined address or a traveler eager for an out-of-the-ordinary stop, Zest is the ideal place for a classy after-dinner, a research-driven aperitivo, or an evening to remember. It is not just a bar: it is a destination of liquid art, an experience to live and to tell.
