Therapeutic
Cocktails
"The ritual of drinking has always been about more than what's in the glass."
Negroni
"Bitter, balanced, and better with time."
Born in Florence, 1919. Count Negroni asked for something stronger. Equal parts gin, Campari, sweet vermouth — one ratio, infinite depth. The cocktail educated drinkers use to judge a bar's quality.
Espresso Martini
"The drink that refuses to let the night end."
Dick Bradsell, 1983. A model asked to be woken up and messed up. It disappeared for decades. Then Gen Z rediscovered it. Now the most-ordered cocktail in the UK.
Paloma
"More Mexican than the Margarita — and better for it."
Mexico's true national cocktail. Tequila and grapefruit: bright, tart, infinitely refreshing. The drink that converts tequila sceptics and rewards those who already believe.
Hugo Spritz
"Elderflower, mint, and the feeling of a long evening."
Created in 2005 in South Tyrol. Lighter than Aperol, floral where Aperol is bitter — the Hugo is Alpine elegance meets Italian aperitivo. The defining summer drink of 2026.
36 drinks. Two worlds.
