With Bonfire Night just around the corner, it’s not just marshmallows we’re toasting… This month say hello to a ‘smoking-hot’ luxury cocktail trolley collaboration, a Día de los Muertos fiesta alongside planning a rooftop reggae-inspired spiced rum launch.


ROLLING OUT THE RED CARPET FOR …

The Old Fashioned Experience with Buffalo Trace 

Buffalo Trace Distillery, the world’s most awarded distillery, is set to launch the Buffalo Trace Old Fashioned Trolley at JW Marriott Grosvenor House this November. The trolley is a bespoke masterpiece by sOak London, marrying together the rich histories of JW Marriott and the distillery. The front of the trolley features a replica of the Buffalo Trace Distillery water tower, especially engraved with their motto; ‘Honour Tradition, Embrace Change’. Guests can select their choice of bourbon and which smoke they would like their Old Fashioned finished with, the ultimate destination cocktail experience this winter.

This collaboration starts on November 17th at JW Marriot Grosvenor House, London.

Sound good? We think it’s the ‘wheel’ deal…


EVERYBODY’S TALKING ABOUT…

Bad Beer Vodka

Say goodbye to waste this firework season with Bad Beer Vodka, the latest release from BrewDog Distilling Co., Scotland’s first carbon-negative distillery. Bad Beer Vodkas are made from any batch of beer that doesn’t quite make the cut, making this the ultimate sustainable serve as the nights draw in… 

Cosy up by the bonfire this Guy Fawkes Night with our personal favourite, Vanilla & Marshmallow, combining notes of caramelised marshmallow and Madagascan vanilla, weaved together in a super smooth and tasty twist on the classic vodka. What ‘smore’ could you want? 

Watch this space - upcycling just got seriously delicious…

THE ART OF THE APERITIVO…

Savoia Americano : The new ‘Amaro Dolce’ aperitivo

Never has aperitivo hour been sweeter with Savoia Americano, the newest addition to the collection from the creators of Italicus bergamot liqueur. 

The brain child of  internationally renowned mixologist Giuseppe Gallo, Savoia Americano is carefully crafted in a historic artisanal distillery in Turin, the landscape of which inspires the classic yet distinctive bottle design. 

This Amaro Dolce aperitif bridges the gap between a bitter liquor and red vermouth, marrying the two beautifully in one bottle: the bitter (‘amaro’) and sweet vermouth (‘dolce’). The bitterness from aloe, rhubarb and quassia wood, balanced with zesty mandarin, bergamot and pink grapefruit, and finished with a gentle kick of cardamom and ginger make this the ultimate pre-dinner tipple…

Happy hour just got a whole lot happier.
