Speakeasy

Starting from the classics

In 2022 the dream of bar manager Carmine Siciliano and his business partner Domenico Casoria blew on its 10th birthday candle. We are in the Naples area, just 20 minutes from the capital city, in a cocktail bar that stands in central Piazza Municipio with its two inner rooms and an alfresco area. There’s no password required at the entrance, and the concept of speakeasy ties to the choice of furniture – like the wooden counter, a bottle rack stocked with over 500 labels, the brick wall, and the warm light – and the signature cocktail offering. The drinks often start from the classics, like the Negroni with dark cocoa liqueur and peat whiskey or the Whisky Sour with Monte Somma apricots. The drink menu changes yearly using homemade preparations and fresh fruits and pays great attention to the upcoming cocktail mixing trends. Speakeasy had served low-alcohol drinks long before it became a trend, allowing clients to enjoy their orders even more. The attention to detail also reflects on homemade ice served in blocks.
