Cocktail Inspiration – Guw-Hwat-Tea My inspiration comes from the city of Guwahati, where I currently live and work. As someone who has moved here from another part of Northeast India, I've experienced how every meaningful conversation seems to begin with a simple invitation: "Let's have a cup of tea." In India, tea is more than just a beverage. It is a symbol of welcome, connection, and hospitality. It brings together friends, strangers, families, and colleagues, whether they're celebrating a milestone or simply taking a moment to pause. I wanted to capture that feeling using Dewar's 10 Year Old. Its smooth, honeyed character pairs naturally with passionfruit and a botanical blend of lemongrass, ginger , creating a drink that feels vibrant when served cold and comforting when served warm. That's why I named the cocktail Guw-Hwat-Tea—a playful tribute to Guwahati and the tea culture that defines so many everyday moments in India. Although the serving temperature changes, the purpose never does: to bring people together over a shared drink and meaningful conversation.
