The Wigmore, the modern British pub located at The Langham, London on Regent Street, has launched a new cocktail list to sit alongside the pub’s signature food and drink menus.
The list has been created by Head Bartender Bohdan Burkovetskyi, who joined The Wigmore last year following a successful career as a Bar Manager in Kyiv, Ukraine, working at the likes of Bursa Hotel and Kyiv Food Market.
Bohdan prides himself on creating menus that enhance the local drinks culture, pulling on native favours and drinking habits to create unique flavours that helps associate drinks with the bar atmosphere.
Highlights from the 11 new cocktails include the Earl Grey Negroni, which interprets the tea flavour through Tanqueray Gin, Italicus Aperitivo, dry vermouth, bergamot aroma, or fruity creations including a tequila-based Sassy Mango cocktail or rum Pineapple Express Martini.
For those looking for something sharper there’s the Bitter Sweet Symphony with vermouth or Churchill Cigar made up of cognac and port.
Five new gin and tonic creations launch alongside the cocktail list, delivering a fresh twist on the classic cocktail, with a mixture of zesty undertones and tangy notes including; the Sapling Gin with rhubarb & hibiscus and the Wigmore Gin with rosemary & black olive.
Accompanying the drinks list, several new dishes join The Wigmore’s food menu, including Pork rillette; Spiced duck pastilla; Baba ganoush; and Heritage carrot, quinoa and feta salad.
These take their place alongside The Wigmore’s much-loved signature dishes such as the XXL stovetop 3 cheese & mustard toastie; Masala spiced scotch-egg; Bloody Mary salt chips; Braised beef and onion pie; and Cheeseburger with grilled ox-tongue.
