Cold Weather Cocktails

There’s a hint of a French connection in our winter drinks collection, starting with eau-de-vie, followed up by Jules Verne’s mythical beast and what could be more French than a pink onion! The French connection has even crept into our otherwise all-Indian hot tea.

Signature Cocktails

Some of these cocktails are matured in new French oak barrels, some in dark glass vessels and some with spiced smoke to add complexity and depth of flavour.
