Signature Drinks
Ménage à troisPushing the boundaries on what a cocktail is, this newest creation transforms a Brandy Alexander into a trio of experiences. First is a fog of Krigler’s Established Cognac 66 perfume, followed by made-to-order Brandy Alexander ice cream. Lastly, a cognac with an added nose of chocolate and the mouthfeel of cream creates a spirit-only version.
Pimm’s CupWimbledon would be proud of this elevated Pimm’s Cup. It starts with a unique Japanese kumquat gin, fresh fruit and local mango tea. This version develops a more robust flavour as it rests in the porthole vessel we serve it in. Once built, we leave the drink in your hands to pour at your desired strength.
Flame of LoveA modern riff on the original, which was created in 1970 for Dean Martin by Chasen’s bartender Pepe Ruiz.
Call Me SambaldyA classic tiki-style drink thrown on its head with a hint of unexpected Asian spice.
Dulce Far NienteA cocktail version of the famed Italian dessert, tiramisu (complete with mascarpone mousse).
London FogA sophisticated woodsy cocktail paying tribute to Mother England.
RitualThis clarified cocktail takes heavenly inspiration from the classic El Diablo.
Writer’s BlockA refreshing gin-based cooler designed to get the creative juices flowing.
AtonementAa take on an Old Fashioned, with do-it-yourself finishing flavour elements to make up for past sins.
