Hendrick's Anotherland

Hendrick's created a Midsummer Night's fever dream called Anotherland to

celebrate its first new flavor in a long time,

The pop-up was envisioned by the storyteller behind Sleep No More,

but from the first insanely delicious sip,

I was questioning if I like it and the adventure hadn't even begun.

We ventured through Shakespeare-covered walls on the main floor for

more chaos in the form of more drinks and bites,

And this was no normal event space either.

We found hidden doors around every corner,

leading to some communal and super intimate one

on one moments like this serene personal serenade.

and even a one on one tarot card reading.

From personality-based botanical ingredients to vibey forest-like

dark hallways and dance-laden shared spaces,

interactive doesn't even begin to cover it.

The experience is only here for a limited time,
