Life In London

Life in London tips its hat to the festive froth of the Tom and Jerry; a warm, spiced cocktail that was once a staple at Christmastime parties across Britain and North America. Invented in the early 19th century (and possibly named after Pierce Egan’s popular novel Life in London), this drink predated eggnog’s rise to fame, bringing together brandy, rum, egg, sugar, and warm milk or water into one frothy, decadent delight. Though it’s largely faded from modern menus, the Tom and Jerry was once the drink of the season, served from ornate punch bowls in bustling parlours, sipped beside fireplaces while the snow fell thick outside. It spoke of cheer, indulgence, and a little seasonal showmanship (since whipping up the egg base
took real flair).

We captured that sense of vintage elegance and warmth in this blend. Mohair brings shine and bounce, Baby Alpaca lends richness and warmth, while BFL adds strength and structure.
A hint of rose fibre gives a soft, subtle sheen, a final flourish worthy of any holiday toast.
Smooth, nostalgic, and quietly extravagant, this blend brings a toast to tradition, with a London twist.
