Axia partners with Gaucho for a winning collaboration at Cocktails in the City
Axia Mastiha Spirit was proud to partner with Gaucho at the latest edition of Cocktails in the City from September 5–7, 2024. The event, held in the heart of London, brought together some of the city's most innovative cocktail bars, street food vendors, live music, workshops, and tastings for an unforgettable experience.
Together with Gaucho, a brand renowned for its mastery of Argentinian cuisine and culture, Axia crafted two bespoke cocktails that stole the spotlight:
Watermelon Spritz
A refreshing blend of Axia, London Dry Gin, Aperol, Watermelon Cordial, Citrus Blend, and Cucumber & Watermelon Tonic. This light, effervescent drink became the drink of the season, combining crisp watermelon flavour with subtle woody notes from the juniper-forward gin. It was a summer essential, clean and sparkling in every sip.
Margarita with Chimichurri Salt
A creative twist on a classic, this cocktail paired Axia with Quiquiruiqui Espadin Mezcal, Cointreau, and Red Pepper Cordial, with a chimichurri salt rim. The smoky, savoury blend of mezcal and Axia was accentuated by the bright, sweet-and-sour flavours, creating an unforgettable experience for the adventurous drinker.
The event was a celebration of London's thriving cocktail culture. Across the three days, the Axia x Gaucho stand served 6,895 cocktails to 2,544 guests becoming the top-selling cocktail stand at the event.
Cocktails in the City continues to be a unique platform where brands like Axia can showcase their spirits to a passionate and engaged audience of cocktail lovers. This latest partnership with Gaucho at Cocktails in the City is another milestone in Axia’s journey to shake up the spirits scene.
