12 flavors

of the year

Time moves in cycles, and each month leaves its unique mark. Brand Bar Manager Daniil Leman captured the magic of time and transformed it into 12 signature cocktails inspired by seasonal ingredients and their finest expressions.



THE WATER LILY GLASS


Some cocktails are served in the signature 'Water Lily' glass, handcrafted by Anastasia Panibratova using free-blown lead-free crystal. The design was inspired by one of Count Shuvalov’s most romantic stories — a boat ride across a lake covered with blooming water lilies, where he proposed to his beloved.
