From the Bartender

The Enzoni was created by Vincenzo Errico at Milk & Honey in London around 2003. Muddling grapes rather than using a store-bought juice is non-negotiable - the freshly broken skins add a subtle tannic grip that holds the cocktail together.

Jasmine
Hayman's London Dry Gin

Jasmine

Bright and bracingly sour up front, with Campari's bittersweet ruby character threading through clean gin botanicals and a whisper of orange from the triple sec - the lemon zest garnish adds an aromatic lift that ties everything together.

Old Friend
Hayman's London Dry Gin

Old Friend

Crisp and citrus-forward with a floral sweetness from elderflower, underpinned by the dry, herbal bitterness of red bitter liqueur and the bright tartness of fresh grapefruit - a refreshingly complex aperitivo experience.

Singapore Sling
Gin

Singapore Sling

A lush, tropical blend of sweet pineapple and tangy lime, brightened by juniper-forward gin and enriched by the dark fruitiness of cherry liqueur, citrusy triple sec, and honeyed herbal Bénédictine. A whisper of aromatic bitters brings balance and depth to this refreshing, vibrant classic.

Division Bell
Mezcal (Del Maguey Vida Clásico)

Division Bell

Smoky and bittersweet on the nose, with a citrus-forward palate that layers mezcal earthiness against the floral cherry notes of Maraschino and a clean, dry lime finish.
