BERMONDSEY: THE PLACE WE CALL HOME
Bermondsey in the mid-19th Century was both a centre for trade and industry, and a notorious slum. Close to the River Thames and crammed with wharves and warehouses, it was the place where London's food was produced and stored.
Happy world bartender day! What an incredible industry, made by the people who work it every day! Thanks for every drink, every chat, every vibe and for all the laughs.

We obviously recommend our Bermondsey Dry Gin 😉 For the sake of historical accuracy, he also recommends straining the drink into a chilled cocktail coupe (a stemmed glass with a wide, shallow bowl), because the martini glass as we know it didn't come on the scene until the 1920s
Fun fact:
Cocktail historian David Wondrich prefers his Martinis this way—that is, with equal parts gin and vermouth, as they were served circa 1910. To achieve the right flavor balance, he suggests using a high-proof, full-bodied gin that can stand up to the vermouth.
To make:
In mixing glass filled with ice, combine gin, vermouth, and bitters. Stir well, about 20 seconds, then strain into cocktail coupe or martini glass. Twist lemon peel directly over drink to release essential oils, and serve.
