You are probably wondering what Hendrick’s Gin Elevatum is, well you can certainly guess with the picture at the top of the article. Well yes, as part of its sponsorship of the Festival International de Jazz de Montr\u00e9al, Hendrick’s Gin sends you a balloon ride! You want to win your ticket, I explain how down (you must love the Gin).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

With the awesome heights of Hendrick’s Gin’s ELEVATUM on a soundtrack of C.O.R.G.A.N., you’ll see an unusual show in Montreal<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Always inclined towards things that are out of the ordinary (you must have had a Hendrick’s party to find out about it Thanks Invasion Cocktail for that), Hendrick’s Gin pushes once again the limits of the bizarre, combining music, show, jazz, gin and weft sound with a balloon flight.

The strange is coming to Montr\u00e9al<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

“Hendrick’s Gin is the foremost provider of all things strange,” says Beth-Anne Perry, Hendrick’s Gin’s first national Brand Manager. The E.L.E.V.A.T.U.M. and C.O.R.G.A.N. embody the unusual character of our brand. We are eager to reveal simultaneous shows to the world. In the Quartier des spectacles for the first two days of the FIJM, E.L.E.V.A.T.U.M. (Elevating, Levitating, Exceptionally, Voluminous, Amazingly, Towering, Uplifting, Mobile), a 19.8 m hot air balloon, will take the holders of a gold ticket to a height of 44 1\/4 cucumbers, where will reveal in the skies of Montreal a wonderful world of cucumbers and roses.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

C.O.R.G.A.N. (Cucumber Organ of Remarkably Glorious Auditory Nirvana), designed in a style reminiscent of the Victorian era, but with a twist quite to the taste of Hendrick’s Gin, has touches made of real cucumbers. He will accompany E.L.E.V.A.T.U.M. by providing him with an unusual soundtrack.<\/p>\n\n\n

“When Hendrick’s Gin gets involved, the unusual is still in place,” said Alvin P. Ramchurn, probably the best representative of the brand Hendrick’s, Hendrick’s Gin national brand ambassador. We pushed the boundaries to present a simultaneous show in the sky and in the street, like Hendrick’s Gin: whimsical and wonderful. “<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The two wonders can be seen at the Hendrick’s Gin VIP Lounge. This is where guests and guests with an enchanted gold ticket will have privileged access to Hendrick’s music, entertainment and smaller gin-tonics. All served in small cups of tea filled with mini-cucumbers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
