There’s something so chic about a martini, and a martini in Dublin’s Grand Dame five-star hotel? Perfection. In celebration of World Martini Day on 21st June, The Shelbourne is serving a two-week showcase of one of the world’s most iconic cocktails.

From 13th to 27th June, you can try a Martini Flight in No. 27 Bar at The Shelbourne — a “curated journey through the art, balance, and timeless appeal of the martini”.

Each flight offers four hand-batched martinis, served from frozen for perfect clarity and chill

From approachable classics to bold variations and refined signatures, the flights are designed to suit every stage of martini appreciation – this is a great way to figure out which style you prefer.

You can select your garnish from a variety of traditional and Shelbourne-exclusive options, and allow their team to guide your tasting with expert notes and pairings.
