Explore a parallel universe and a completely new dimension of gin with Hendrick’s latest expression, Orbium. The limited release spirit ventures down a unique, experimental direction filled with quinine, wormwood, blue lotus blossom. The result is an intriguingly complex blend with a fragrant floral nose that spirals into an alluringly bitter finish.
While the multi-layered gin has been available in Britain, Singapore is the first market in Asia where the spirit can be sampled. Sixteen selected bars – including Atlas, Manhattan, and Jigger & Pony – are putting their own spins on this special gin and have created unique Orbium cocktails available for a limited time only.
For instance, Manhattan, which ranks No. 11 on The World’s 50 Best Bars 2019 list, has come up with Hen’s Party, where Orbium is mixed with cucumber tonic syrup and orange bitters to create a cocktail inspired by the sazerac and gin and tonic. At MO Bar, hops are added to lend a floral, earthy edge, alongside Cocchi Americano and manzanilla in its Lupus cocktail.
To sample these exquisite Orbium creations, drop by these participating bars: 28 HKS, Antidote, Atlas, Gibson, IB HQ, Idlewild, Jigger & Pony, Manhattan, Madame Fan, MO Bar, Nutmeg & Clove, Origin, Oxwell & Co, Skai, Tippling Club, and Barbary Coast.
