What is a Bars & Cocktails influencer?

A Bars & Cocktails influencer is a creator who posts about wine, cocktails and bars, from natural wine and mixology to the best drinks lists on Instagram or TikTok. They range from a few thousand local followers to national reach, and brands work with them to get in front of people in Cardiff who already care about bars & cocktails.

How We Rank These Creators

We look at three things: recent content quality, reach, and how much of a creator's content is actually about bars & cocktails. The "Bars & Cocktails" figure is the share of their recent posts that met both.
