F.A.W.C! Unlikely Companions - A Cocktail Party

An exciting collaboration between Elephant Hill chef Ben Cruse and Hawke’s Bay’s newest spirits brand, this is a cocktail evening not to be missed.
Food and wine pairings are well documented, but during this exclusive free-flowing event, a selection of Ben’s canapes and small plates are expertly matched to a series of divine cocktails mixed using fresh local ingredients and Unlikely Companions’ botanical gin blends.
Enjoy the sweet sounds of local music while you bar-hop your way around this beautiful winery, where pop-up cocktail carts serve enticing, interesting creations, and there’s also a chance to vote for your favourite food and beverage combination.

Ticket price includes: welcome drink, 4 cocktails, roaming canapes at each bar, 2 small plates and live music
