Sip & Savour Series

Celebrate the arrival of The K Club’s Autumnal Afternoon Tea on Thursday 19th October! Join us for the exquisite first taste of the new seasonal offering that, for one afternoon only, will be taking place amid a spectacular salon fashion show of A/W couture looks from some of Ireland’s most talented designers including: Paul Costello, Sookyoung Song, Louise Stokes from Loulerie, Christina Goldston, and Catriona Hanley.

Perched at the edge of a lake in a shed in a small Irish town in Co Leitrim, the ordinary is made extraordinary by PJ Rigney as he slow distils gin with nature’s finest oriental botanicals and gunpowder tea. For one night only, PJ will be hosting a masterclass with his Drumshanbo Gunpowder Irish Gin in the comfortable, low-lit surroundings of The Palmer. Gin lovers will be guided along a curious botanical trail while signature serves and carefully crafted cocktails will provide you with the ultimate way to serve each sip.

The K Club’s rich history is inextricably linked to wine, it is therefore inevitable that the pièce de resistance of the drinks event series culminates with an incredibly special wine experience. This year, Lillian Barton – whose late father Sir Anthony Barton was the last Barton to be born at The K Club – is returning to one of the most important addresses in her family’s long legacy to host an exclusive evening alongside The K Club Chief Sommelier, Lisa O’Doherty. A Champagne reception in the Garden Room will be followed by a five-course gala dinner from The Barton restaurant’s talented chefs, with each dish expertly matched with stunning Chateau Leoville Barton wines. Lillian will also be bringing an exclusive wine from her very own sought-after cellar to pair with the course of her choosing.
