Tucked behind the cold chamber of Pizza Da Vito at 5 Rue Sedaine, Moonshiner is Paris's ultimate speakeasyâequal parts swagger and secrecy. Push through the fridge door and you're transported to the Jazz Age: exposed brick walls, artâdeco lighting, tin ceilings, and leather booths illuminated by moody candles. It's the kind of place where each sip feels conspiratorial. Patrons cozy up with inventive cocktails like the Smokey Islandâa bold blend of aged rum, vodka, gin, and smoky aromaticsâor the popcornâinfused Merci Louie, or go classic with a Kentuckyâs Best Manhattan. There's even a punch for just âŹ6, a steal in such a dramatic setting. But the real star is the whiskey. With 83 varieties from peaty scotches to rare old pours, Moonshiner is a haven for whisky lovers. And for those who enjoy a smoke, there's a discrete indoor smoking roomâa rare find in Parisian cocktail bars. Operating nightly from around 18:00 to 02:00, it hums with energyâespecially on weekendsâwhile maintaining an exclusive, candlelit ambiance. No reservations, no sign, just a fridge door and a secret thatâs worth discovering.
