The Union / Hendrick’s Gin Pop Up Bar opened
its doors, with the exclusive launch held on 23 April 2015, on the corner of
Oxford and Chaplin Street in Illovo (inside the Norman Goodfellows Warehouse).
The Union Bar is taking the Pop Up experience
back to Victorian England, resurrecting the oddness of the time with Hendrick’s
Gin. Known for its unusual brand imagery, Hendrick’s is a
premium gin, made with a number of unusual twists, to deliver a most curious
arrangement.
Unlike ordinary gins, Hendrick’s is distilled in Scotland and is actually the marriage of TWO Gins.
Only Hendrick’s is made with infusions of Cucumber and Rose petals, producing a
wonderfully refreshing gin with a delightfully floral aroma, and is handcrafted
in miniscule batches of only 450 litres at a time.
This unusual brand ethos is being brought to
life by The Union Bar in the most peculiar way, launching the experience with performers,
an adult Carnival Playground, over-the-top, selfie-friendly set designs and of
course an entire cocktail menu inspired by the alchemy and pure inventiveness
of the Victorian era.
The exclusive cocktail menu was designed by five
of the country’s top mixologists, as well as a specialist bartender from Hong
Kong. The traditional warehouse is transformed into a truly unusual space
courtesy of the expert décor and design of the legendary Union Bar – this
should be a journey of discovery not to be missed.
To find out more about this unique
experience, please visit www.theunionbar.co.za or contact info@theuniobar.co.za Visit www.hendricksgin.com for a most unusual online experience, or perhaps a
taste of what to expect.
The Union / Hendrick’s Gin Pop Up Bar will
only be open for just under three months, until 12 July 2015.
Drop in and experience the unusual, the
exquisite and the peculiar for yourself!
