Sorano, the authentic Italian dining experience and intimate cocktail bar in Kolkata, recently launched a new cocktail menu ‘Mixology Masterpieces: Edition One’ in celebration of its 2nd anniversary.
Rated #26 on 30 Best Bars India ranking in only their first year in 2022, Sorano has been on a mission to redefine authentic Italian cuisine and cocktails.
‘Mixologist Masterpieces: Edition One’ is a new generation of cocktails available at Sorano, which follows the tale of a traveller from Kolkata to Italy, noting the parallels they experience between them.
The menu is crafted by head mixologist Manoj Singh Rawat, creating a narrative that links the cities and highlights commonalities through flavours and emotions. This traveller’s tale is introduced through seven new signature cocktails, followed by Sorano’s classics.
Manoj says: “This menu was created keeping in mind the importance of a human touch in our quickly changing technological world. New signatures, like the Roman Madari, Sage’s Advice and Sicilian Message, cement our commitment to not just innovative and enticing drinks, but also the evolution of cocktail culture,”
Some of the new cocktails to look forward to are:
Sage’s Advice: inspired by the values of patience and wisdom, this sweet and bitter cocktail blends premium gin with herbal elements like sage and rosemary, finishing with the subtle flavours of muskmelon and watermelon.
Roman Madari: Inspired by celebration and vibrant nostalgia, this fruity and citrusy cocktail mixes premium gin with saccharine elements like bergamot, plum and yuzu, complemented by Aperol and citrus for a refreshing sunset-coloured blend.
Sicilian Message: Inspired by raw emotions and human connection, this savoury creation combines premium gin, lacto-fermented grapes, grapefruit and passion fruit, completed with fresh capers for a perfectly pink beverage.
Whispers of Kaffir: Inspired by nature and nostalgia, this sweet, zesty libation comes together through white rum, pineapple, peaches, lemongrass, kaffir and imported Italian lemons for a deliciously light elixir.
