A showcase of unique style, unsurpassed quality and innovative design, the preview event embodied a celebration of craftsmanship and the partnership between two iconic brands
Doha, Qatar, November 24th, 2019 –Shaken not stirred, with a dash of pizazz in between, The Ritz-Carlton, Doha welcomed the bespoke Asprey beverage trolley for a celebration of craftsmanship and a partnership between two iconic brands. The preview event complemented by an exclusive trunk show highlighting Asprey leather bags, jewelry and watches, was the epitome of unique style, unsurpassed quality and innovative design.
Made exclusively for The Ritz-Carlton brand, the Asprey trolley draws inspiration from the most creative and innovative bar designs from the 1920s and 1930s when craft libations marked the height of fashion and also when Asprey first started creating beverage shakers. Celebrating this golden age of unique concoctions and Art Deco glamour, the silver-plated and tempered glass trolley will be on display at the elevated Ritz-Carlton Doha Club Lounge until the end of the month. Fitted with the most exclusive of luxury accessories, the trolley features customized ice buckets, beverage coolers, ice tongs, and decanters, in addition to handmade shakers and mouth-blown, hand-engraved glassware. Expert guest mixologists served up handcrafted drinks, using local ingredients for regionally curated beverages. Throughout the month, guests can visit The Ritz-Carlton Doha and partake in the experience throughout the hotel.
Having made its debut at The Ritz-Carlton hotels across Europe and North America, the trolley is currently on its maiden tour across the Middle East. From Oman to Doha, each stop on the international tour has inspired mixologists to create locally inspired beverages that bring back the early 20th-century art of crafting the perfect libation. Served from this bespoke trolley, it pays tribute to the heritage of great craftsmanship and speaks to the partnership between The Ritz -Carlton and Asprey.
This exclusive trolley also follows the introduction of Asprey Purple Water beauty amenities at The Ritz-Carlton hotels across the world and are available for purchase at http://www.asprey.com/special-commissions.
