“• While booking flamenco in Granada there are plenty of options- but in the end we were glad we chose Cuervo Los Amayos. • This is how they check the list:- 1) Small, cozy venue- unlike commercial flamenco. As locals say flamenco is to be enjoyed without mics in a more in person experience 2) Sacromonte near the gypsy quarters the birthplace of Cantor Jondo in its caves flamenco was born! So more authentic 3) Quality of artists- quite incredible. The energy was mesmerising so was the elegance and beauty! The Duende was indeed very strong • Also the drinks were pretty good Only point of improvement being seating could…”
