02 / The work

From the bench to the bar.

Thirty bartenders explored botanicals and created their own aromatic blends before making cocktails infused with the scents they had developed. Head bartender Andrew Loudon of Tippling Club led the workshop, sharing his approach to aroma in cocktails.

03 / The outcome

The session introduced Star of Bombay to leading Singapore bartenders through hands-on experimentation. A prize for the best-smelling cocktail added a competitive finish.
