London Cocktail Week is coming and to celebrate, The London Essence Company is launching an immersive cocktail experience. The Essence House is an interactive space where you can discover your palate profile and try a bespoke alcoholic or non-alcoholic cocktail that’s been scientifically matched to you.
Made with the purest flavours from distilled botanicals, London Essence has tasked Dr Rachel Edwards-Stuart, an expert in the science of gastronomy and flavour perception, to curate a series of taste and aroma tests to determine what flavours you like and why you like them. All that info is then used by some of the world’s best bartenders from venues including the Four Seasons Hong Kong, American Bar, The Savoy and Dante, New York to create a specially crafted cocktail tailored to your palate.
You’ll also have the chance to experiment with London Essence’s tonics, gingers and sodas and create your own individual cocktail, and discover how The London Essence Company has been inspired by traditions which were established towards the end of the 19th century, with oversized, scented pages unearthed from the company archives.
Tickets to The Essence House cost £10 and that gets you a personalised palate profiling experience and two cocktails.
