Κοκτέιλ «κάψουλα»

Here's a $95 VR cocktail which could still give you a real life hangover. As soon as you order the experience a server comes and presses an acorn into the palm of your hand. He/she then returns with a box of moss and vintage glasses filled with Oloroso sherry and Macallan Rare Cask scotch, there's also dry ice and the VR goggles to transport you on the "Macallan Rare Journey". The customer then places the acorn onto the moss, and pours warm water over the dry ice, to create an atmospheric fog (like Scotland). Then it's time for the VR journey, which describes, in arty 3D, how the whiskey was made. By the time the show is over the cocktail (with the real life alcohol) will have been prepared, which the customer enjoys in the romantic mist of dry ice. The VR narrative revolves around the casks, made from trees in American and European forests, and aged with sherry. Creator of the drink Raquel Raies says she wanted to create "a tableside storybook that you'd taste along the way�The more people know about something, the more they appreciate it," she explained. The virtual reality cocktail is currently only available at the upmarket Bottle & Baptiste in Chicago, Illinois.
