Tuesday, July 4th (After Imbibe), 6:00pm – 9:00pm, TT Liquor, London E2 8AA
Lovers of American Spirits and distilling will be excited to learn that a unique deep dive into American spirits is taking place on Tuesday evening next week after Imbibe, in the welcoming and hospitable Orangery Room at TT Liquor.
The House of U.S. Spirits pop-up will provide the opportunity to taste what is the largest and most diverse collection of American spirits BarLifeUK has ever seen under one roof in the UK.
The big names will be in attendance, as you would expect, along with other brands and liquids with evocative names like ‘Golden Moon Distillery’ and ‘Ole Smoky Moonshine’ that UK bartenders may not have yet had the chance to explore. The pop-up promises to be a real voyage of discovery for any bar folk who would like to increase their knowledge of U.S. Spirits and taste some exceptional drams.
In addition to tastings, the event will feature five masterclasses, covering cocktail-creation and category education, along with private, in-depth tasting sessions.
The House of U.S. Spirits pop-up is strictly trade-only, so you will need to register in advance here or carry some sort of ‘I’m A Bartender’ identification on the door (not sure a waiter’s friend will suffice, your payslip is a better bet).
