Interactive, precise, and quintessential Aviary theatre.
In The Rocks is a Manhattan-style classic locked within a hollow sphere of pure ice. Broken open at your table with a slingshot, the ice gives way to release rye whiskey, dry vermouth, rich maple, walnut, and a lift of aperitivo.

Engaging all senses.
The Cereal Killer is crafted to engage every sense from the moment it arrives. Sealed in a pillow of air and cut open at the table, the cocktail releases a wave of aroma, setting the stage before the first sip.
A rich blend of whiskey, genever, sweet vermouth, and aromatic spices.
