1105

Masterly mixology in a swanky setting
Tipple of choice: The Cucumber Yum Yum won first prize at the 2009 Danish Cocktail Championships: inspired by Heston Blumenthal, its bright red colour belies the cool cucumber flavour.

Word to the wise: The people behind 1105 have recently opened another ace cocktail bar, the art nouveau-inspired L'Etoile (www.letoile.dk).
This downtown joint is stylish in the extreme, the place to go if you want to feel like you're in an expensive spirits advert. The striking interior features black walls and a long black bar, behind which barmen in immaculate white jackets create classy concoctions for a well-off, 30-something crowd.

1105's award-winning mixologist, Wolverhampton born Hardeep Rehal, takes his job very seriously indeed. producing innovative concoctions such as his famous Cucumber Yum Yum, made with Danish aquavit, and Snap Fever, made from sugar snap peas, bay leafs and gin. Getting your five-a-day has never been so enjoyable.
