‘Sense, Sip and Repeat’ at Terrazza 241
Guests and locals alike can ‘sense, sip and repeat’ with the delectable new medley of sensory tipples in partnership with Como-based perfume company Acqua del Lario. Cocktail enthusiasts will have the chance to choose between four niche ‘Acqua del Lario’ perfumes theatrically presented in a lavish box, with each fragrance inspired by Lake Como, named after Como winds and linked to cocktails on the menu.

The mouth-watering selection features four signature cocktails characterized by a sensory experience; four smoked cocktails created with different smoking techniques; four coffee-based cocktails perfect for an after-dinner aperitif and four mocktails for the sober curious.
Amongst the full offering, guests can opt for the NOVA; combining the Ventone fresh fragrance paired with Mountain pine gin, lime, green tea and bergamot orange, denoting a freshness and zest accentuated by the citrus notes of grapefruit and bergamot; or ASH combined with the Breva woody fragrance, and its floral undertones and hints of cedar wood blended with ingredients such as hibiscus vermouth, apple, rose and prosecco.
