Our Masterclasses

  • Our masterclasses are fun, relaxed, and easy to follow. Guests learn to make classic and signature cocktails with clear guidance on techniques, ingredients, and presentation. Sessions are engaging without getting overly technical. The goal is simple: have a great time and learn something new.

  • Perfect for birthdays, hen and stag groups, or small celebrations at home or a private venue. We bring everything and tailor the drink list and pacing to your group. Choose themes, favourite spirits, or a full zero proof set if you prefer.

  • Ideal for team socials, client entertainment, offsites, and away days. Designed to spark interaction and teamwork in a relaxed setting, with the option to include branded menus, themes, or competitive formats.

Customer Stories & Feedback

    Derrick was absolutely brill for our house warming / birthday party last night -- the drinks were amazing, he was a fantastic host and even worked the room checking if anyone would like a top up, remembering what each guest had last. He managed some really tricky orders - including people who were both alcohol and sugar free. He was great to have around, including while prepping and as guests arrived, and helped ease any awkwardness between guests that didn't know each other. We heard from many guests after how great he was and I know plenty asked for his details to use him at their own events. Just an all round fantastic guy & mixologist that we'd definitely like to use again. Can't recommend enough.

    I have hired the Private Mixologist twice, once for my 60th and second for my daughter’s wedding celebration and they were awesome! The drinks were magic. We drank the bar dry. The staff were friendly and so helpful. For me they score 10/10 well done and will definitely recommend.

    Derrick, director and founder was amazing from beginning to end, we loved his energy and professionalism - really polite yet fun and charismatic and really listened to our asks. He made sure we’d be well taken take of and we truly was. Oleg his colleague was the mixologist for our birthday party and everyone loved both him and the drinks he made! We made a drinks menu but Oleg also made really nice drinks based on the things we had and it was truly appreciated.

    The service was impeccable thank you both and private mixologist for being amazing! Will 100% book with you guys again and recommend you to our family and friends!

    Derrick and his team were fantastic on the day, and even before too helping me pick the perfect drinks menu for my birthday party. The guys easily are able to get on with all the guests, make killer drinks and even showed off amazing hosting skills remembering a lot of names and taking orders around the garden and house. Will defitnely use again and refer to friends!
