Explore a surreal absinthe drink-and-draw workshop where three curious artefacts from the Viktor Wynd Museum of Curiosities become your muse — each paired with a course of Devil’s Botany Absinthe to awaken imagination and distort perception. As you sip and sketch, you will uncover the bizarre origins of each object and feel your creativity shift into the realm where the Bohemian artists once played.
Your ticket includes a trio of absinthe:
🍸 Devil’s Botany London Absintini
🧚 Classic fountain serving of Absinthe Regalis
🥃 Shot of Devil’s Botany Chocolate Absinthe Liqueur
A small range of pencils, charcoal and paper will be provided, or bring your own art supplies – just come with an open mind. Take your seat, tilt your perspective and draw what shouldn’t exist.
