Dog’s Nose & Shandygaff: an evening of forgotten cocktails

The London Gin Club will be recreating a range of "lost" cocktails, including two from Charles Dickens books.

Dog’s Nose and Shandygaff are just two of the many punches and cocktails Charles Dickens describes his fellow Londoners enjoying. But many of these ‘wonderful inventions’ have fallen out of our drinking tradition.

Starting with Dickens’s tales, his family’s drinks recipes, and the list currently on display in the Museum of what he stocked in his cellar.

The evening’s ticket includes:

- A tasting session and talk by the London Gin Club;

- A bar with a special menu of forgotten cocktails;

- An optional tour of the house;

This event celebrates the loan to the Museum of Charles Dickens’s cellar inventory (c. 1865)
