Some things just carry on, even when there's financial constraints, restraints and we're printing money to pay for it, the brainchild of Simon Difford, London Cocktail Week was launched yesterday at Selfridge's store...I did go past the store's promotion enroute to my doc's for my flu jab but didn't venture in after. They have opened a pop up 'speakeasy' bar, which I'm intending to visit tomorrow after a morning film screening in the nearby Everyman. About 200 bars will take part and events range from a Cocktails and Cupcake party at the wonderful award winning Sipsmith Distillery in Hammersmith to a Dickensian-themed doctors and nurses party at Callooh Callay in Shoreditch. Other events include The Whisky Show at Vinopolis in Borough and RumFest at Olympia next weekend. .... http://www.LondonCocktailWeek.com Twitter to stay in touch with LCW... http://twitter.com/#!/LDNCocktailWeek http://www.sipsmith.com/ "We always dreamt of creating a truly artisanal family of spirits of uncompromising quality. And in late Spring 2009, our handmade copper-pot still, 'Prudence', the first in London for 189 years, gently delivered our first batches of gin and vodka. The results are everything we hoped for – intense, smooth, full of character and, above all, wonderful to drink. We can't wait to share them with you. Sam and Fairfax, Sipsmith Founders.
