Martini Experiences

At Egerton House Hotel, the martini is something of a signature. Served with quiet confidence in the Drawing Room, it has long been a ritual here — precise, personal, and always perfectly balanced.

Rooted in this tradition, our Martini Experiences invite you to go beyond the glass and into the craft itself. Led by our expert mixologist, each session explores the details that define a truly exceptional martini, from the choice of spirit and the role of temperature to the subtle variations that shape its character.

Whether you are discovering your preference or refining it, these are experiences designed to be savoured slowly, in one of London’s most intimate settings.

Choose your experience, whether the Classic or the Connoisseur, and settle in to discover your martini, exactly as it should be.

Please note: These experiences must be booked in advance and are subject to availability. You’ll be able to select your preferred experience during the reservation process.
