Last Thursday 7th September we were excited to hold our third Mahou Informal Party event of 2017 in collaboration with Mahou- San Miguel, a Patron of the Chamber, at the stylish Trison Showroom in Hammersmith.
Despite the evening being a particularly blustery one with a definite feel that autumn has indeed arrived, it was wonderful to welcome so many of our members to the showroom. Over deliciously cold Mahou beers as well as delectable freshly cut Spanish ham, guests caught up following the summer break and shared holiday stories, providing an upbeat atmosphere. The Trison showroom is a modern, chic venue in South-West London with beautiful views overlooking the river Thames, particularly from its balcony.
The world-famous Mahou beer has been one Spain’s most important beer brands and has been a vital part of Madrid’s gastronomy for over 125 years. Due to its freshness, authenticity and high quality, it is widely known as being one of the finest tapas accompaniments there are.
We would like to say a big thank you for everyone who attended this party and sincerely hope that it was enjoyed by all as much as it was for us.

On Tuesday 20th September we took part in the International Wine and Spirits Tasting, which is organised every year by several foreign Chambers of Commerce in London. This event aims to broaden the attendee’s network by gaining access to a genuine international audience.

On this occasion, Argentina, Austria, Belgium & Luxembourg, Canada, Colombia,France, Italy, Japan, Mexico, Spain and Switzerland were the countries whose wines and spirits were represented at the event. This made this evening the largest International Wine and Spirits Tasting to date in terms of number of countries represented.

With such international mixture the event didn’t fail to impress. Guests had a unique opportunity to broaden their international business networks with their peers from other Chambers, with which everyone was delighted. In fact, attendees were sharing and exchanging opinions about the spirits and making recommendations to each other in a very relaxed environment, which translated into a very positive and lively atmosphere.

The International Wine and Spirits Tasting would not be possible without the kind collaboration of the sponsors.

Mr. Pau Campolier and Mr. Alexis Becco, from Mahou-San Miguel, were in charge of the Spanish beer station.

This variety is crafted with hand-selected Saaz hops, among the most exclusive in the world, and renowned for their delicate aroma and floral spicy flavour.
Alhambra remains faithful to its traditions while reinterpreting and adapting its beer to modern times.

Spanish beer was only one of the many options our guests could taste. According to many attendees, the revelation of the evening was the new participant Colombia and their rum. Others showed their preference for Japanese sake, or the colourful Italians liqueurs, without forgetting the sweet Canadian ice wine that once again impressed the most demanding connoisseurs. What everyone agreed on was the excellent selection each country offered, which allowed many guests to discover new and unexpected flavours.
The attendees had the opportunity to enjoy different kinds of spirits from around the world.
We would like to warmly thank our Patron Mahou-San Miguel for their kind support providing the Alhambra beer. Likewise, we would like to thank as well to all the attendees who joined us and, especially, to our colleagues at the Foreign Chambers of Commerce and trade institutions for their work and collaboration to bring this event to life and make it a success yet once again.
