Leap Year Speakeasy - Journey East

Celebrating a day that doesn't normally exist

A pop-up bar happening 29 Feb every year!

29 February - a day that normally doesn't exist. We created something that also doesn't normally exist in a furniture shop: a proper cocktail bar.

thanks to everyone who came down and had fun

Being the best way to spend a sweltering afternoon, our pop-up bar featured 3 themed-cocktails created especially for Journey East, made with the super-premium Laplandia Vodka (Finland), and the uncommon Metsis Blue Gin (Estonia).

Behind the bar was Bear, a 20-year veteran in SG’s mixology scene. We’ll also offered 3 award-winning craft beers from indie brewery Rock Paper Scissors (Finland), available nowhere else in SG, as well as an array of amazing cheeses and cold cuts at a take away counter.

DJ Jeff-0 entertained the crowd through the afternoon with a funk disco retrospective, dropping familiar tunes but with a twist.
