We always knew she’d leave us… but not before emptying our rum shelves. 😉

For 4 years, Marie has been the sunshine behind our bar, always smiling, always ready with a wild story, and always followed by her trusty sidekick, Cassie. 🐕✨

You’ve heard her iconic 'Ho Waw!' echo through the nights, and you’ve been charmed by her endless, unforgettable tales.

This weekend is her final shift, and we’re definitely not ready to say goodbye. 🥲

Come join us for one last round of cocktails, stories, and maybe even a 'Ho Waw!' or two.

Thanks for everything, Marie. The bar won’t be the same without you.

PS: And don’t miss her brand-new signature cocktail, her final gift to us. 🍸

Planteray Stiggin’s Ball 2026 🍍

Two weeks ago, we spent a few days in the heart of Maison Ferrand, where time seemed to slow down among the casks and the stories they hold. 🍍🥃

We walked through big stills and rows of aging rum, shared thoughts with Alexandre Gabriel, who's passion for spirits is as contagious as the aromas in the air. The Planteray team welcomed us like old friends, and the bartenders, from all around the globe, brought their own flavors to the conversation.

And then there was the Stiggin’s Fancy Pineapple, a rum that carries the warmth of the tropics and the craftsmanship of Maison Ferrand. We even had the chance to prepare pineapples for the next batch, a small but meaningful part of the process.

Grateful for these moments, these people, and these spirits that bring us together.

THE MODERN ALCHEMIST x CLAIRIN COALITION 2026 🏝️🔥

We’ve been obsessed with Clairin since day one here at The Modern Alchemist. So when the chance came to join the Clairin Coalition 2026, a handpicked group of Europe’s top cocktail bars, we didn’t hesitate!

This year, alongside some of our favorite bars, we had the opportunity to select a very special cask: a Clairin Sajous Ansyen aged in Ex-Caroni Cask for 11 months. A rare, vibrant expression of Haitian terroir, finished in a legendary Caroni cask for an extra layer of complexity. 🌍✨

Only a few bottles exist. And we’re thrilled to be among the bars that made it happen.

We’ll be pouring this liquid gold at the bar, neat, or in a Daiquiri. Bottles are also available for purchase directly at the bar or in our webshop!

Cheers!

✨ This Saturday: Zwanze 2026!✨

For this iconic event, we’ve created a cocktail with Zwanze Artemis La Blanche that you will find exclusively at our friends from Moeder Lambic Fontainas this Saturday.

Back at our bar, we’ll also be serving a cocktail made with Kriek 2025, alongside bottles of 50°N-4°E 2023, aged in cognac and rum casks, because everything is better with a little rum magic.

Huge thanks to / for trusting us with this amazing opportunity, and to for their incredible brews that inspire us every day!

See you there to celebrate together! 🍻

Rum Tuesday #3 – Paranubes

Paranubes is a 100% cane juice aguardiente from Mexico, distilled in small batches using a hybrid copper pot still. Made from a blend of four cane varietals (Criolla, Morada, Dulce, Dura), it’s fermented from fresh juice blended with juice aged up to four months, using native yeast, and bottled at 54% ABV with no water added. The purest expression of cane flavor! 🌱

Known for its artisanal approach, this rum offers unique notes of truffle, fresh-cut grass, subtle salinity, and a peppery finish. (Some will even say "ketchup-y"!)
Unaged but remarkably complex, with a smooth, lingering presence.

📍 Available for tasting at The Modern Alchemist.
