On 10 February, Prague's Forbína bar will be transformed into a futuristic Roman oasis that you wouldn't normally experience. Two bartenders from the iconic Drink Kong bar, Patrick Pistolesi and Tommaso Sorrentino, will be coming for a guest shift.

Drink Kong, a regular participant in the prestigious The World's 50 Best Bars ranking, is synonymous with retro-futuristic elegance. The bar combines a dark, stylishly minimalist interior with neon lighting and visual details reminiscent of a sci-fi arcade – a space where every cocktail is not just a drink but a sensory experience.

Guests at Forbína can look forward to iconic cocktails from the Flux menu, which Pistolesi describes as “a journey through the senses.” Each drink is carefully layered, visually striking, and technically perfect. Among the stars of the evening could be, for example, the Canova drink, a delicate gimlet inspired by the scents and flavors of the sea, minimalist yet distinctive. We believe that the menu will also feature Gaijin, a drink that celebrates Japan with Japanese whisky and miso cordial, a complex and unexpectedly harmonious combination.

Forbína will thus open up space for mixological experimentation that combines technique, visual art, and cultural inspiration from around the world. The evening will be about flavors, aromas, lights, and a moment that will never be repeated in this combination.

For Prague cocktail fans, this is a unique opportunity to experience the world's top bars firsthand – and at the same time to feel the atmosphere that is usually only found at Forbína: futuristic, creative, and completely immersive.
