The Absinthe Parlour
Opened in 2016 by Allison Crawbuck and Rhys Everett—founders of Devil’s Botany, the UK’s first absinthe distillery—The Absinthe Parlour at The Last Tuesday Society is a labyrinth of cocktails & curiosities. After a glass of the green fairy, descend into the depths of the Viktor Wynd Museum of Curiosities. Explore a basement filled with the bizarre and the beautiful, including unicorns, mermaids, two-headed lambs, magical soaps, and skeleton fairies.
Devil’s Botany is the UK’s first absinthe distillery, founded by Directors of The Last Tuesday Society’s Absinthe Parlour & Cocktail Bar. Celebrating spirit’s connection to art, literature, magic & mixology, Devil’s Botany is unleashing the future of absinthe with bold expressions for the adventurous drinkers of today.
