Tuesday saw the regional heats for West London and Islington held at the bar with no name. Teams representing each bar presented two drinks, one simple and universal, the other as creative as desired. As to be expected, a variety of interesting drinks evolved, ranging from sweet to savoury, hot to cold and liquid to solid. In the end, the standard was so high, 5 went through- including Ryan and Marcis Dzelz8nis representing 69 Colebrooke Row. Details of the Grand Final are due to follow, but rumours suggest the focus will be on creativity so it is likely the lab equipment will be at the fore again…
As the busy season creeps up on us, the Colebrooke crew head to Bistrot Bruno Loubet at the Zetter Hotel for a team lunch to discuss the season at hand.
Apart from the amazing food and service, the staff were also more than accepting of our tom-foolery. See photographic evidence below:
We then moved on to a tour of Clerkenwell, guided by none other than our very own Tony C, full of knowledge about the old Gin distilleries and the changing trades that used to occupy the area…

Competition success is following the 69 staff, with Ryan winning regional finals in both the N0.3 Gin and 209 Gin competitions to make it through to the National finals of each over the next few weeks.
Meanwhile, Stu took top honours at the Pernod Ricard competition- Free Pour- fighting off high standards from competitors around the country to place first and win himself a trip to Cuba and the title of Lord of the Free Pour.
Congrats!
