Mistress of the Manor
“In the 1920s The House on Sathorn was a luxury resort called the Hotel Royal, and our Madame Staro cocktail is named for the Italian lady who managed it. The main ingredient is Hendrick’s Orbium gin. The Italian touch is some Cerignola olives, and we make a kind of cordial with them. Mixed with Sauvingnon Blanc grape juice and Cynar, an Italian bitter aperitif made from artichoke, it’s served on ice and garnished with a prawn mushroom cracker and an olive.”
“Our Mansion cocktail comes in a ceramic stone, referencing the earliest days of Sathorn when there was basically nothing here. The base ingredient is Michter’s Kentucky Straight Rye whiskey. We then combine it with Four Pillars Bloody Shiraz Gin, pu-erh classic Chinese tea, sweet tamarind, and choya umeshu (plum wine). It’s served with a small chocolate shell filled with a foam of Greek yoghurt, blackberry, smoky whiskey, and tamarind.”
