WITHDRAWING ROOM
Welcome to one of the capital's most celebrated cocktail and spirit destinations –
distinguished by its outstanding mixology and venerable "liquid museum".
We offer the warm and intimate atmosphere of a private club accompanied by a
vibrant ambiance that makes it a popular choice to enjoy drinking and socialising.
The Lanesborough has long been known for its impressive Cognac collection,
spanning over 300 years of history. Bar Manager Mickael Perron has curated a
new whisky collection to include single malts to appeal to every guest, from
whisky novices to seasoned connoisseurs, ranging from classic Speyside single
malts to collectable and extremely rare bottles.
We are excited to welcome you back to more beautifully crafted spirits and
exciting flavours.
As a socially responsible business, we are delighted to commit our support this year to
Heartburn Cancer UK, a charity dedicated to raising awareness of the dangers of persistent
heartburn, gastro-oesophageal reflux disease (GORD) and Barrett's oesophagus. A voluntary
donation of £1 will be added to your bill which goes towards a new mobile diagnostic unit,
making a new detection test called the Cytosponge more readily available in the community.INDEX

Did You Know?
The Angels’ Share is the poetic name for evaporation during the maturation of
the cognacs in the barrels, which leads to 2-3% loss every year. After 25 years
of maturation, 50% of the initial inventory has been enjoyed by the angels.
After 50 years, this amounts to a 90% loss.

SMOKEY – PEPPERY – PEATY
Peat is earth that consists of compact accumulation of decomposed grasses, moss, trees,
roots, dead animals and soil over thousand of years. Historically used as a source of fuel
when dried, the peat burns during the drying process of barley, and the dense smoke is
absorbed by the grains. This phenolic flavour remains thoroughout the entire whisky
making process and the level of smokiness is determined by the time that the barley
grain is exposed to the pungent peat smoke.
