Arnd Henning Heissen - the Art of Mixology
Top mixologist Arnd Henning Heissen creates the cocktails for his latest menu.
Frankincense, tonka beans and a steam iron. Just some of the elements that top mixologist Arnd Henning Heissen uses to create his cocktails. Inspired by aromatherapy and the perfumes people wear, he searches the globe for unusual ingredients to recreate that smell in drink form, blending together bark juices and fragrant herbs, working with smell and memories to craft what he calls ‘liquid sculptures.’ Lindsay Leonard meets him in Berlin, Germany as he creates new tastes and sensations for his latest menu.
Producers: Lindsay Leonard and Andrea Kidd
