Between the 27th and 30th of June, Mr Fogg expanded his estate as we teamed up with Aspall to create the Apple Orchard bar at the Aspall Tennis Classic tournament.

Mr Fogg is delighted to announce the opening of his Apple Orchard Bar at the Aspall Tennis Classic tournament, which will be held at The Hurlingham Club in London from Tuesday 27th to Friday 30th June 2017. Celebrating his first countryside drinking establishment, a magnificent marquee bar has been constructed for the occasion, where the finest and most refreshing Mr Fogg’s libations will be served.

On Tues 6th June, Mr Fogg’s had a Pop-Up bar at the Royal Albert Hall, for the first ‘Royal Albert Hall Founding Patrons Event’. Mr Fogg’s partnered with Belvedere vodka to create two exquisite cocktails: ‘The Victoria’ & ‘The Albert’.
It was an evening of cocktails, canapes and a surprise performance by a top opera singer. Guests were invited by RAH, and Mr Fogg’s compass holders were also asked to join.
The fit couldn’t have been more seamless, with our Victorian style bar in a beautiful Victorian building. Mr Fogg’s looks forward to doing more Pop-Ups at The Royal Albert Hall.
