Themed

Inspired by the elegance of Japanese tea culture, Tea House No. 9 is a modern gin creation combining the delicate character of oolong tea, warming peppercorn spice and aromatic orange peel. Campari and sweet vermouth bring a sophisticated bittersweet depth, while lychee adds a subtle touch of floral sweetness. Finished with aromatic orange bitters, this cocktail delivers a beautifully layered balance of botanical, citrus and tea-inspired flavours.

Editor's Note

A Negroni-inspired highball where oolong tea, peppercorn, and lychee build a complex, aromatic bridge between gin, Campari, and sweet vermouth.
