Le ‘TINI BAR by Grey Goose arrives in Montréal and Toronto

Dear gentlemen, you may be on vacation or in front of your TV watching the Paris 2024 Olympic Games! Speaking of which, as I write this article, Félix Auger-Alliasime has just won his match. Why am I talking about tennis? Well, because the National Bank Open starts soon, from August 3 to 12 in Montréal, while its Toronto counterpart runs from August 4 to 12. LE ’TINI BAR by Grey Goose will be on hand for the tennis experience in Montréal. This ephemeral installation draws on the luxury and prestige of tennis tournaments and Canada’s most popular film festival, offering an exclusive haven for martini and James Bond fans (vodka and martinis, we’re not far from 007).

LE ‘TINI BAR by Grey Goose Experience

While we loved the Grey Goose Lawn Club last year, this year’s event encourages you to get out your chicest outfit inspired by tennis culture for Montréal (August 8–10) during the National Bank Open, and film culture for Toronto (September 5–7) during TIFF. You’ll be guided through three mini-bars to immerse yourself in a gustatory journey through the natural elements of Grey Goose vodka—water, wheat and sky, as brand distiller François Thibault explains in this interview.

You’ll be immersed in the unrivalled French savoir-faire of Grey Goose vodka through masterclasses in the making of mini Martini cocktails (like 007, we love vodka Martini), including Classique, French and the ever-popular Espresso Martini. 

Once your tasting journey is over, you can relax with your playing partners in the Grey Goose Martini Cocktails Lounge, where trays of signature mini martini cocktails and refreshing summer cocktails will be available for purchase.

What the ticket for LE ‘TINI BAR by Grey Goose includes

• 3 customized mini Martini cocktails made with Grey Goose(Petit Martini, “French” Martini and Espresso Martini) each accompanied by a canapé
• A three-part master class in martini cocktail creation led by expert mixologists, and it looks as though, based on my contacts, you’ll be making the official Honey Deuce cocktail of the US Open, the recipe for which you can find here.
• Access to the Grey Goose Martini Cocktail Lounge

Ticket price for LE ‘TINI BAR by Grey Goose is $25 + taxes and fees per person (up to 8 tickets may be purchased in limited quantities).
