"An imperturbable oasis in a clamorous world"

Nestled in the heart of Mayfair, the Connaught Hotel dates from 1897 and is one of London's most luxurious hotels, called "the pride of London innkeeping." The only hotel allowed to use Buckingham Palace royal red in its carpets, it has been frequented by British gentry, royalty and "the quieter members of American society." The Connaught has hosted guests including Edward VII, Charles de Gaulle, Princess Grace, Cecil Beaton, Cary Grant, Lauren Bacall, David Niven, and Ralph Lauren. A particular favorite of the hotel was actor Sir Alec Guinness, who would stay there when working in London and always had at a suite at his disposal.

The luxury of the hotel extends to its world renowned bar, where you are greeted with a snifter of the aperitif of the day. After that, you can avail yourself of the cocktail menu, including a classic martini trolley service, with your drink is mixed tableside by a white-gloved waiter.

With over two hundred recipes, The Connaught Bar Book allows you to step inside one of the best bars in the world, with a behind the scenes peek at how their mixologists create 100 elegant cocktails (including twelve non-alcoholic options) and how to recreate them at home. With easy-to-follow instructions, expert guidance on bar tools, glassware, and spirits, and recipes for homemade syrups, infused spirits, and garnishes, the book walks you through making the bar's signature celebrated drinks.

Each cocktail recipe is introduced with a narrative from the bar's virtuoso mixologist Agostino Perrone (head of the bar for over twenty years) about the inspiration and ingredients that make these cocktails truly sensational experiences. With a foreword by legendary chef Massimo Bottura and a preface by Anistatia Miller and specially commissioned cocktail photography by Lateef Okunnu, The Connaught Bar is the ultimate cocktail recipe and hospitality book and companion.
