Cocktail course at Copenhagen Distillery

Come join the sorcerer's workshop, where the bottles with colored contents in golden hues, are lined up behind the bar, and where the master himself touches and shakes, like the most natural thing in the world. For, how does he really know which cocktails to stir and which ones to shake? And can it fit that the glass has meaning or that Gin & Tonic is an art startup? Step into a world seething with fizzes and sours, but where the wizard guides you around without a single ice cube landing incorrectly. After the course, you can continue to explore the different tastes of Copenhagen Distillery's cocktail bar, where you can hang out for drinks and cozy togetherness.

Cocktail Masterclass

Copenhagen Distillery has a dedicated and nerdy staff, and we celebrate this with a series of top specialist cocktail masterclasses. So hurry to buy a ticket, the groups are small and the level will be towering. Each month, one of our expert bartenders will select an exciting theme and present recipes, techniques and, not least, heist stories that unfold a very specific corner of the cocktail universe. There will be plenty to learn for both the all-green home bartenders and all those who think they already know it all. This October, we spotlight the complicated and sometimes opaque relationships that define and separate Fizz, Collins and Sour cocktails. Bartender and whisky maker Niki Fribert Lauridsen takes us by the hand and guides. What exactly are the differences? Where do the different drinks actually come from? And how do you make the right foam on your whiskey sour? That and much more will be answered while, of course, we also review the very basic techniques and principles that apply to cocktails in general. In November, our Assistant Bar Manager Jasmin Liljudottir is focusing on hot drinks. It's cold and dark, and the world is full of hot cocktails. Mulled wine, vin chaud, mulled wine, glüh wein, hot punches and toddies, to name just a few. But how do you manage to make a good Gløgg? Why does it heat up? Copenhagen Distillery has won “most innovative” at DM in Gløgg three times, so of course we also need to get a bit avant garde. The December course is all about Martinis in the company of our development manager and cocktail book author Sune Urth. New Year is around the corner and what's more festive than a Dry Martini. Join the workshop as we dive into the history of the martini. We're going to talk about vermouth, stirring techniques, Zen Buddhism, microcollapses and a little bit about James Bond. It's going to be geeky, it's going to be gin-heavy and it's definitely going to be festive. January becomes a little less gray and gruesome than usual when our bar manager Tobias Larsen points his binoculars at New Orleans. The mythological jazz capital is home to a bevy of amazing cocktails, from la Louisianne and Sazerac to Ramos's Gin Fizz. It's going to be something to do with dusty jazz, heist stories and a lot of whiskey and brandy. After the course, you can continue exploring the different tastes in Copenhagen Distillery's cocktail bar, where you can linger for drinks and cozy get-togethers.

Whisky tasting at Copenhagen Distillery

The host on the day is one of our very experienced colleagues who have both knowledge and practical experience in the production of our whisky — and whisky in general. Copenhagen Distillery was started as a whisky distillery and in February 2020 the first drops hit the streets and was immediately named Danish Whiskey of The Year in Jim Murray's Whisky Bible. Now they are ready to present the whole family, and what a family. One of the distillery's experienced whisky employees welcomes and shows you around the factory, between copper kettles, fermentation vats and whiskey barrels. After that, you will be benched, and have to taste everything from the completely freshly distilled drops to bottled ready-made whiskies. There will be bread and mouth cleaners along the way so that the taste buds are kept crisp. Subsequently, both bar and shop are open, where there will also be an opportunity to purchase the distillery's whisky's, gins or Aquavits. In addition, it will be possible to buy a taster of Danish Whisky of the Year 2021; our First Edition. But only as long as stock is held. After tasting, continue exploring the different tastes at Copenhagen Distillery's cocktail bar, where you can hang out for drinks and cozy togetherness.
