Flying Above The Dream Cocktail

Flying Above The Dream Cocktail Glass of Bubbly

Once upon a time, man believed he could fly, and through pure will and determination on a dream, Wilbur and Orville Wright were the bothers to do it, but before their success, many tried and failed with innovations that were ahead of their time, these dreamers are what push mankind to new eras of innovation and creation. So this original Glass of Bubbly Cocktail is in honour of them, those who are Flying Above The Dream.

The Prosecco – Bianchin

The Vineyards of Bianchin are located in the heart of Montello, where nature and memories unite, shining light on a glorious past for the Bianchin family.

Responsible for the production of their Asolo Prosecco DOCG, the family takes great care in nurturing the vines, with the hope that the terroir of the land is captured within the fruit and that it speaks its greatness and shares its secrets in nobility and its richness in spirit.

Bianchin – Asolo DOCG Prosecco Superiore Extra Dry Millesimato – Tasting Notes

Aroma – “Soft and creamy with ripe/juicy green fruits and white pears on the aroma.”

Flavour – “Sweet and very refreshing, creamy green fruits, white pears, pear blossom, and sweet green apple syrup on the palate.”

The Haroosh – Whisky & Honey

Lost Loch Spirits was founded and is owned and operated by Pete Dignan & Rich Pierce, with three aspects being crucial to their mission – the place, the process, and the spirits.

The Place – The Lost Loch Spirits distillery is in the heart of Royal Deeside, 30 miles west of Aberdeen. The distillery is built on the banks of the now drained Loch Auchlossan or the ‘Lost Loch’. The landscape and the history surrounding them seeps into the storytelling, flavours, and their branding.

The Process – To maintain the highest standards, Lost Loch Spirits produces in a small batch mentality in an honest and transparent way. Using only natural ingredients and respecting the environment.

The Spirits – Each spirit draws inspiration from local provenance and the histories of the land around them. The final products are quirky, invigorating, inventive and imaginative, distinctly separate but part of the Lost Loch Spirits family.

Lost Loch Spirits – Haroosh – Tasting Notes – “Sweet, delicious, succulent honey notes consume the aroma, just like diving into a pool of honey. The palate is much the same, sweet, silky and smooth, with honey, golden honey, rich honey, warm melted honey, honey on toast, Whisky notes gifting it that unique enjoyable character and even more honey!”

The Haroosh is a special product for Lost Loch Spirits, it originates from the North East of Scotland, using brambleberries foraged from the Royal Deeside area and honey from local bees which collect nectar from different areas in and around the Dee valley, the Haroosh has been made the exact same way for the past 100 years, their family and friends have enjoyed this creation for generations, and since 2016, so can you.

Each bottle is hand-crafted, limited and sealed with beeswax, containing at least 50 brambleberries and their bees have to travel around 4500 miles to collect enough honey for every bottle.
