London Mezcal Week 2019 | Cactus cocktails in TT Liquor

Mezcal isn’t known for being weak.

But this summer, we’re getting a week that’s going to be very mezcal.

It’s the return of London Mezcal Week, back for its third year, and it’ll be hosted exclusively at bar & cocktail emporium TT Liquor in Shoreditch, running from Monday 15th to Sunday 21st July.

Across the week, there’ll be a bunch of events taking place at TT Liquor, including the likes of guided tastings in their Cellar Bar; rolling masterclasses in the workshop upstairs; and a cocktail-paired Mexican feast with a screening of Y Tu Mama Tambien in the cinema room courtesy of Kino Vino.

But the best is being saved for last.

You see, it’ll all culminate in a great big, two-day spectacular tasting festival on Friday 19th and Saturday 20th. For a £35 ticket, you’l be able to access over 50 brands of the smokey stuff – featuring everything from traditional mezcals, to your sotols and Baconoras – and you’ll get six hours of guided tastings to try them in. Add in a few seminars from industry experts, plus cocktails and Mexican small plates…

It’s worth a shot.

NOTE: London Mezcal Week 2019 takes place from Monday 15th to Sunday 21st July. You can get tickets to the Tasting Festival (£35) HERE and find out more about Mezcal Week right HERE.
