As Founder and Managing Director of bar restaurant group, Darwin and Wallace, I have always strived to keep our drinks range relevant, delicious, never faddy, but crucially created using the best house made syrups combined with artisan spirits with stellar credentials. This, combined with a genuine desire to keep our guests engaged with the best cocktails we can create, has led to a new partnership with Virtuous Vodka - a unique organic vodka that inspired us to create the Berry Virtuous cocktail as part of our summer refresh. Now I need your help. I want to know which of my bartenders is the best at mixing up this latest creation, the Berry Virtuous cocktail. As a familiar face amongst my teams in the bars, this is difficult to do so incognito. Therefore, I need someone to visit all 6 of my locations across South London and try out the new Berry Virtuous. The catch? None - you just have to do it without being noticed. I want someone, completely unknown to my staff, to taste the Berry Virtuous cocktail in each venue, take notes on the experience, presentation, service and of course the cocktail! To complete the ruse you may want to take a friend, your trusted partner in crime, who can distract the staff while you’re making notes under the table. If you think you’re the right person to help me, please press make an offer and let me know why in the comments. Task info - Visit each of our six venues Order 2 x Berry Virtuous cocktails at each. I’ll provide a scorecard so your judgement is objective across venues. Completion date is flexible (by mid-July the latest). Your reward? I consider myself a great host, so not only am I offering £600 for your help, but I’ll cover the cost of 2 x Berry Virtuous cocktails in each of our six venues, and I’ll feed you in one of the venues as well. The cocktail? The seasonal serve, the Berry Virtuous is made with Virtuous Vodka Raspberry, an organic vodka produced 300km north of Stockholm, Sweden. Made using organic Swedish rye it is unfiltered and offers a smooth yet distinct taste. Organic raspberries are added to the vodka to macerate before being gently filtered. The result is a vodka with the striking, natural taste of raspberries The Venues: 11 Pimlico Road - Pimlico 32 The Old Town - Clapham 1 Duke Street - Richmond 197 Chiswick Fire Station - Chiswick 29 Power Station West - Battersea 602 Queen's Rd - Wimbledon
