Secret Garden Pop-Up Speakeasy Launches at Philadelphia Distilling

by Michelle Cryder in Event Listing

Celebrate spring in style this April with Philadelphia Distilling at Botanicals in Bloom–a secret garden speakeasy bursting with blossoms and artisan cocktails galore.

This 4-night pop-up runs April 10-13 and will take place in a lavish indoor garden installation on the 4th floor of Philadelphia Distilling expertly designed by Cara Rose of South Stems.

The Lab, Philadelphia Distilling’s 4th floor event space, will transform into an explosion of flowers, botanicals, and greenery to transport you to a private garden paradise.

Tickets include two prix-fixe cocktails paired with light bites inspired by the herbs and botanicals used to distill some of Philadelphia’s most beloved local spirits – Bluecoat Gin including the floral Elderflower expression, Vieux Carré Absinthe Supérieure, and Vigo Amaro. While you enjoy the garden getaway, you’ll also have the opportunity to craft your own custom blend of bitters to take home with you.

Bonus: If you want to try your hand at mixology, be sure to join Philadelphia Distilling on April 13th at 1 PM for a special edition of their Cocktails 101 class. Some of the city’s best mixologists will walk you through the nuances of crafting a perfectly balanced cocktail with herbal and aromatic notes that bring out the best of each ingredient.
