    We’re delighted to bring together two of our favorite beverages for a summery experience that tingles the senses. 

     

    Paris’s IESSI and Antwerp’s Figa bring their artisanal approaches to non-alcoholic drinks together for a unique in-store tasting, where you can enjoy handcrafted mocktails mixed especially for this gathering or savor their distinct flavors separately.

     

    Join us for an apéritif with sounds and tastes to hold on to summer a little longer. Especially for the occasion, we’ll serve delicious bites from Cammalleri Pastificio on the house.

     

    If you’re planning to join us, we’d love to know, so we can make sure there’s plenty for everyone.

    get to know the makers

    IESSI

    IESSI was founded by Nicolas Maiarelli with the desire of creating a drink that offers complex tastes and is alcohol-free. He drew inspiration from his nonna’s amaro recipe, and with the help of mixologists, distillers, and oenologists in France and Italy, he developed a recipe that captures the deep bitterness of a traditional amaro, balanced with sweet citrus notes for a distinctive taste experience.

    Figa Kombucha

    Figa is a microbrewery carrying a unique selection of unpasteurized pét nat kombucha. Using only high-quality, natural ingredients, every flavor of kombucha offers interesting and exciting taste variants that pull out the natural characteristics of their tea bases, but also have their own refreshing twists. Created in small batches, the kombuchas are all handcrafted, hand-bottled, and sometimes even hand-delivered, by Figa’s founder, Yassine Ejdaa.

    19/07 — In-store concert with Cucina Povera, Mélodie Blaison, Coline Cornélis

    What to expect

    Live performance by Cucina Povera

    Cucina Povera’s voice has an uncanny power to permeate the listener’s emotions on the first listen and every listen thereafter. An acute sense of space and a personal preference for a limited sound palette create deeply affecting messages that transcend language.

    Live performance by Mélodie Blaison

    Mélodie Blaison’s work proposes sonic introspections where a collage of intuitive sculptures and distorted memories are articulated. In addition to the flute, her main instrument, she uses different combinations of objects, materials, and sound sources, such as field recording, ceramics, or analog synthesizers.

    DJ set by Coline Cornélis

    Coline Cornélis has etched out a singular audiovisual universe where sound, space, shapes, and textures meet to form a whole. She creates aural environments that envelope listeners and dancers in a dynamic universe of field recordings, bass-heavy rhythms, and leftfield electronics.

    Objects & Sounds | Mood List | Marionette

    What to expect

    Live performance by MinaeMinae

    MinaeMinae is multidisciplinary artist Bastian Epple. In his hands, musical material takes on the essence of documentary footage which he would cut up, repitch, and rearrange freely. Nontypical rhythms and colourful synthetic and analogue sounds take you off the well-trodden path and into a landscape that brims with novelty and sounds that move with vivacity.

    Live performance by David Edren

    Artist and composer David Edren’s collage of music and creative projects hold a reverence for flora and fauna, undertones of meditative restraint, and a carefully crafted sense of beauty. Conceptual ideas come to life in fluid, calming synth melodies.

    DJ set by grimwig

    Grimwig aka Ali Safi is label founder of Marionette. Ali relies on intuition to form a dialogue bridging the disparate worlds that inspire a growing catalogue of oddball releases. Under his grimwig moniker, he carefully selects and blends records into seamless mixes suited for beanbag ambient nights all the way to the smokey afterhours.
