Somewhere By Nico Edinburgh will open on June 10 with a menu inspired by the 1939 movie, The Wizard of Oz. Named Land of Oz, it is the first in a series of theatrical food and cocktail experiences and takes its lead from the movie’s characters ranging from Cowardly Lion, Scarecrow, Tin Man, and Wicked Witch of the West. The new cocktails on offer include Yellow Brick Road – El Jimador Reposado Tequila; Cowardly Lion – Woodford Reserve Bourbon, Project 173 Black Cherry Rum, Red Vermouth di Torino and Deadly Poppy – Axia Mastiha Spirit, Red Berries Cordial, Ginder, Poppy Seeds.
Somewhere by Nico Brand Director Morgan Pope said, “Each visit to Somewhere is fully immersive, and we’ve designed each world to embody experiences that transport people somewhere – to a point in their memories, dreams, past, or present.
“The cocktails are the natural focal point, carefully and creatively crafted to be a multisensory experience. The ‘Land of Oz’ experience should take people a step closer to the Emerald City with every course. You’ll journey through poppy fields, encounter familiar faces along the way, and follow in Dorothy’s footsteps in an unforgettable adventure of your own.
“As with all the worlds we create, it’s inclusive, so there’s a non-alcoholic version of the ‘Land of Oz’ menu so everybody can venture somewhere over the rainbow, whether you choose to drink alcohol or not.”
