CLAP, the internationally renowned fine dining Japanese concept, has launched CLAP Tequila in partnership with The Lost Explorer, the global brand celebrated for its award-winning handcrafted mezcal and tequila. Born from a shared philosophy of innovation between both brands, this collaboration reaffirms CLAP’s celebrated bar ethos – introducing guests to new experiences, aromas and techniques, hand-in-hand with a world-class tequila house. The Lost Explorer’s Tequila Blanco No. 1 is crafted by Master Tequilero Enrique de Colsa, the visionary known for his three decades long career at the forefront of the tequila world.
The new and exclusive tequila bottle is now available at CLAP London CLAP Dubai and CLAP HOUSE Ibiza. To mark the launch, CLAP London and CLAP Dubai will be serving a limited edition tequila-based signature cocktail menu, available from October 14th until November 13th. Guests can experience the distinctive agave-forward Tequila Blanco No.1 through four signature cocktails, each one crafted by a different mixologist at CLAP locations.
From London, the Picakchu delivers a Japanese-inspired twist with the bright zing of calamansi citrus. From Dubai come two unique creations: Golden Tsukiyo, a refined mix of Mediterranean staples like coffee, olive oil, and hazelnut, and Rey Misterio, a bold blend of paprika, beetroot, and dark cacao. Finally, Ibiza offers Young Leaf, a fresh and herbaceous cocktail layered with green shiso nectar, yuzu, and bergamot.
Mathias Piras, Global Operations Director at CLAP, said: “It is an honour to release this exclusive CLAP Tequila across our Dubai, London and Ibiza venues alongside The Lost Explorer – an initiative led by our Bar Manager Lilian Sausset and industry legend Enrique de Colsa. Both CLAP and The Lost Explorer share a passion for creativity and innovation. This collaboration adds another layer of luxury and celebration to the world-class bar experience we offer our guests, and is one of many exciting things to come as we continue expanding our brand.”
Sheyan Patel, Chief Commercial Officer The Lost Explorer, said: “We are proud to have worked with Lilian Sausset and the fantastic team at CLAP to unveil this exclusive The Lost Explorer Blanco. We have a track record of working with our key customers around the world to create unique and exciting partnerships. Launching this limited release with CLAP in the hospitality hotspots of Dubai, Ibiza and London demonstrates our ongoing commitment to our customers and partners.”
Co-created with The Lost Explorer, this custom designed bottle reflects CLAP’s contemporary aesthetic. The brand’s iconic cherry blossom logomarque, reimagined in rose gold, adorns the new limited-edition label, while a modern agave motif appears on the reverse, visible through the glass – a tribute to the agave plant at the heart of this legendary spirit.
