Once you’ve had a chance to look around, you’re suddenly in a beautiful library, where you can sit, sip your cocktail and ponder on what you’re tasting - "a big peaty smack in the face" maybe or "like a big earthy bowl of soup that warms your mind and soul"!? Your opinions are welcome here!

Sound pretty perfect? WELL, London Cocktail Week goers - this experience is within your grasp. The Laphroaig Library - popping up for London Cocktail Week throughout the whole of October at Oriole - is a 30 minute experience offering all of the above - through virtual reality! How perfect in the current climate?

Once you’ve finished your virtual journey, you’ll be invited into the beautiful main Oriole bar where a full menu of Laphroaig cocktails is available from just £6. Choose from the smoky, peaty and theatrical creations crafted by the incredible Oriole bar team, and while away the rest of the evening in this subterranean gem of a bar.  

The immersive 30 minute virtual-reality experience is available for just four people at a time, so the perfect way to experience London Cocktail Week in a safe socially-distanced environment. Because of this, spaces are very limited, so make sure you book your spot quickly!
