Ever had a drink that made you stop and say, “Whoa, what’s the cocktail story behind this?”
At Whisper Cove, every cocktail has one. Some started with a wild idea, others from a happy accident behind the bar.
Like the Geisha—a cocktail that almost didn’t exist. We were messing around with flavors one night, trying to balance something delicate yet bold.
Every sip at Whisper Cove tells a cocktail story. Some are inspired by people, some by culture, and a few by late-night experiments that somehow turned out amazing.
Let’s dive into the inspiration behind each of our signature cocktail story.
