Calling gin lovers of London. Bombay Sapphire has teamed up with Sanderson hotel for a six-week pop up gin bar. Focussing on the botanical ingredients that go into making Bombay Sapphire, the gin legends will host a series of sensory journeys and special events.
“This September, the world’s number one premium gin, Bombay Sapphire, has partnered with iconic West End landmark Sanderson to create ‘The Gin Journeys at Sanderson in association with Bombay Sapphire’. Visitors to the Sanderson terrace between 3rd September and 15th October will experience an exotic journey to the ends of the earth, travelling to the Mediterranean, West Africa and Asia to discover the beauty of Bombay Sapphire.
Inspired by the 10 botanical ingredients in every drop of the gin and the journeys taken to source them, the six week long pop-up will transport discerning drinkers around the world through an immersive sensory experience. An exclusive menu of tempting Ultimate Gin & Tonic twists inspired by each botanical region will be on offer, alongside a bespoke selection of delectable light snacks to compliment the exotic menu and stunning surroundings.
On Tuesday and Wednesday evenings from 6.30pm, Bombay Sapphire brand ambassador Renaud de Bosredon will be available to guide intimate groups through an elevated sensory journey. During the bookable sessions, twelve gin lovers will have the opportunity to discover and explore the signature cocktails via a series of creative experiences. Designed to heighten the worldly inspiration behind the drinks through touch, sound, smell and sight, the masterclasses will also include the opportunity to learn more about the botanicals which are vapour infused at the Bombay Sapphire Distillery at Laverstoke Mill, to create the unique spirit.
Each fortnight guests will be taken on a unique journey, travelling to a different exotic region from which the Bombay Sapphire botanicals are sourced. Alongside beautiful bespoke decorative touches, a limited edition Ultimate Gin & Tonic twist will be revealed, ensuring there is a new experience to be discovered upon every visit. The first signature serve, based on the Mediterranean botanicals, will feature an exotic atomizer filled to heighten the drinking experience through the senses. Offering a retreat from the bustle of the city into a world of fantasy and well-being, Sanderson epitomises a modern luxury that is smart, yet pared-down and tempered.
‘Gin Journeys at Sanderson’ will run alongside the existing Sanderson Sessions, which take place every Wednesday, showcasing some of the UK’s most exciting up-and-coming musical artists.Throughout the pop up, artists will be chosen to compliment the fortnight’s botanical region focus, providing an opportunity to discover new talent alongside a unique drinking experience.”
