September and October are Domino’s busiest months of the year, our feet haven’t touched the ground, literally!
With London Cocktail Week, RumFest and BrewDog Distilling Co’s brand new product launches in October, we’ve been loving being back in action.
Our highlights below...
BrewDog Distilling Co. shook up the drinks world with their brand new portfolio of carbon negative spirits; Seven Day vodka and 500 Cuts rum which joined LoneWolf gin. All housed in exciting new packaging with an exceptional selection of flavours. Last week the team were lucky enough to join some of the UK’s trade titles for an exclusive London Cocktail Week tasting and talk with BrewDog Distilling Co’s head of distillation, Steven Kersley. It was during this session that we each chose our favourite new spirit, tough job we know. After the tasting, we hosted some fantastic influencers and media for ‘a night in the lost forest.’ With some great tunes playing the team got to talk through the new skus with various invited guests, whilst all sipping on a few themselves. The event was praised by various guests and all attendees loved the spirits, and the strong serves! Roll on the next launch party…
This month we also hosted a selection of London Cocktail Week (Month!) events for Hi-Spirits brands. Kicking off with an exclusive Paul John Whisky tasting hosted by the brand ambassador Shilton Almeida trying out ‘Asia’s most awarded single malt.
We also hosted the incredible Sazerac De Forge tasting. ‘Tasting Sazerac as it was 200 years ago’, is a pretty enticing offer if you ask us. Guests enjoyed a tasting and talk through of this complex spirit, learning it’s fascinating history, and the impact it has had on cocktail culture throughout the years. This was followed by a night of Espresso Martini and Margarita mastery, hosted by Imogen and Cameron. Two of the most popular cocktails on any decent bar menu, this event filled itself with ease! All the guests enjoyed their chance to make their favourite cocktails and will be impressing friends and family with their new-found skills this Christmas we’re sure.
It’s been an incredible month already and the fun isn’t over just yet… we’ve got some even more dynamic cocktail masterclasses planned in October; and up next, is Negroni’s! So, keep up with us on socials to see how these events go down…
RumFest is coming to town this weekend and we are primed and ready. It’s a fantastic show and an opportunity for all spirits lovers to get fully immersed in tastings, cocktails and learning all about the wonderful world of rum. With BrewDog Distilling Co. launching their new range of 500 Cuts rum it’s the chance to not only taste the spirits but meet the man who made them, MD and master distiller Steven Kersley. The show also features live Caribbean music, over 400 rums, and dozens of stands and stalls all centered around Rum, this is not one to miss. Get your tickets here, we’ll see you there!
Three Spirit officially back on our books, and we are so happy to be working with them again. The ultimate fun, booze alternative, Three Spirit is the non-alc option for Christmas festivities and they have some incredibly exciting plans for the near future. Vegan, active ingredient, alcohol alternatives are on the rise, and Three Spirit is no exception, they believe in adding extra to alc-free drinks, rather than ‘taking away’ from them, and that shows through their complex and moreish flavour. Get your hands on a bottle here, to believe the hype...
