Using all senses, guests will be challenged (and encouraged) to break down their misconceptions of agave, learn about white tequila and discover their new favourite sip.
Set within one of The Lanesborough's beautifully appointed private dining rooms dressed for this special occassion, guests will be welcomed with a cocktail created with Dobel Silver. Bar Manager of The Library Bar, Mickael Perron, will introduce mixology at The Lanesborough hotel's celebrated cocktail bar, before Tequila Ambassador Maria Modafferi gives an introduction to Maestro Dobel. Next, enjoy a sensory tasting of Maestro Dobel Silver, Maestro Dobel Diamante and Maestro Dobel 50 Cristalino, moving through three expressions of Maestro Dobel, inviting guests to see, touch, smell and hear elements to enhance their tasting experience. The event is concluded with a Q&A and a gift to take home.
