Umami Cocktails at Bar 190, The Gore London (Kensington)
Father’s Day calls for a celebratory drink with Dad and what better place than iconic Bar 190 at The Gore London in Kensington – the original site of The Rolling Stones’ 1968 Beggar’s Banquet album launch party. Explore the bar’s new savoury, umami-rich cocktail menu incorporating ingredients such as balsamic vinegar, vine-ripened tomatoes, truffle oil, pesto and sesame. If Dad is a cheese fan, he’ll love the The Unconventional Blue – cleverly marrying Japanese rice vodka and stilton cheese, gently stirred with vermouth and garnished with Sardinian carasao bread and fresh grape. Or, treat him to a Japanese Tiger – a combination of green tea infused in Ginjo sake rice wine and floral Roku gin, topped with ginger beer drops and three brushes of green wasabi paste.
