A new bilingual, non-profit community project called 'The Poncha' has been launched, aiming to help discover the best places to sample poncha on Madeira Island.
The platform, accessible at theponcha.com, allows users to explore establishments, rate poncha, and add new locations without needing to register. The ranking updates automatically, ensuring no establishment can pay for visibility.
The project's creator, Francisco, hopes the initiative will give traditional bars more visibility and encourage exploration of different parts of the island, going beyond conventional tourist guides.
