Taking Punch to New Heights
A few weeks ago we reported on Bompas & Parr's Architectural Punchbowl. They are the Brits who are known for doing things on a grand scale (remember the Breathable Cocktail?). Well, like any good food event, there is a contest involved. People submitted ideas for punch. They had to include Courvoisier (a sponsor).
The shortlisted punches include Robin Fegen’s Red October, ‘a gilded oasis of alcohol’ based on the 1917 Russian Revolution and Graeme Nicholls’s punch which applies Le Corbusier’s modular proportioning system to mixing drinks:
Candyfloss, Chai, Orange Blossom & Courvoisier VSOP Exclusif Punch - Paul Louis
Emperor’s Shrub - Joe McCanta
La Charante au Petit Matin - Thomas Pook
Le Corbusier's Courvoisier Modular Cocktail - Graeme Nicholls
Red October - Robin Fegen
A panel of judges will choose the winning punch. Tickets are on sale at Bompas & Parr's website.
