Paradiso x W Brisbane Masterclass

Overview

Since May this year, W Brisbane's Living Room Bar has been giving the city a world-best experience. For the past six months, it's been teaming up with Spain's Paradiso to serve up the Barcelona watering hole's top-notch tipples — drinks from a venue that, after placing third in 2021, has just taken out top spot on the World's 50 Best Bars list for 2022.

Yes, these literally are the planet's best cocktails. As well as sipping them, which Brisbanites can still do, you can also now learn how to make them. At three two-hour sessions over two days — at 5pm on Thursday, October 27, and then at 11.30am and 5pm on Sunday, October 30; take your pick — the Paradiso x W Brisbane masterclass will teach you everything you need to know to whip up quite the impressive beverages.

Paradiso's expert mixologist Gianluca Bosso is heading to Brisbane for the sessions, which'll show attendees how to make three of Paradiso's signature cocktails step by step. That spans finding out about the unique ingredients used and the techniques that go into each drink — making edible foam cloud included.

These classes will cost you a pretty penny, aka $259 per person, but you'll also be mixing up drinks in W Brisbane's level-33 penthouse suite (the Extreme WOW Suite), which comes with killer views.

After that, the session moseys down to Living Room Bar, where you'll tuck into a degustation menu and taste a bespoke Paradiso x W Brisbane cocktail, too.

And, you won't go home empty-handed thanks to a cocktail recipe card and a Woodford Reserve Bourbon gift set to keep.
