On the first Saturday of every month, Sorbito at 178 Stoke Newington Road in London turns its daytime tasting room into a compact late-night jazz salon centered on mezcal and brass. The venue opens to the public from 1pm; at 7pm, Jazz FM Award-winning trumpeter Dylan Jones and double bassist Hamish Nockles-Moore take the small stage to deliver two 45-minute sets with an intermission. Your advance ticket guarantees a comfortable seat and the first drink, freeing you to sink into the music and the smoky agave character of mezcal selections chosen by Sorbito's bar team.
This isn't a cavernous concert hall but an intimate tasting room where conversation, clinking glassware, and improvisation occupy the same audible plane. The drinking program focuses on mezcal varietals, giving visitors a chance to compare espadín, joven and other distinct expressions within a single evening. The format—two short sets—keeps the night lively and accessible: it's long enough to feel transported but short enough to fit around other Stoke Newington plans.
For visitors to London, this event is a practical way to sample a specialized spirits program while enjoying live performance from musicians who move easily between traditional standards and contemporary arrangements. Bring a curiosity for agave-driven spirits and a tolerance for close quarters; the room's size makes it ideal for listening up close but less suited to large groups. The event is strictly 18+, and while the booking page guarantees seating, specifics about accessibility and group-size accommodations are not listed and should be confirmed with Sorbito if needed.
Sorbito's location on Stoke Newington Road sits within a neighborhood known for independent food and drink venues and a lively evening culture; the bar's focus on mezcal complements the area's international palate. The musicians' credits provide a cultural touchstone—Dylan Jones' Jazz FM Award signals a high musical standard— the night's rhythm is straightforward: arrive early to browse the mezcal list, settle into your included drink, and let the two 45-minute sets shape the evening.
This Jazz Night is ideal for visitors who combine an interest in live music with tasting-focused drinking, for date nights, or for small groups of friends seeking something different from larger West End shows. Advance booking is recommended to secure that included seat; the event runs monthly on the first Saturday and is a distinct, small-scale slice of London's live-music scene that pairs serious musicianship with a spirited tasting experience.

The Sin Gusano Project is a London-based specialist that curates focused tastings and events dedicated to agave spirits, including mezcal and tequila. The project offers public masterclasses, seasonal thematic sessions, ticketed pairing evenings, and private, small-group tastings led by experienced hosts. Events take place in London venues and in private-home settings when noted, presenting rare bottles, vintage expressions, and producer-driven selections. Signature experiences include introductory tastings that explain the differences between tequila and mezcal, region-focused masters like the Mexican Road Trip, terroir-driven sessions that reveal how land and production shape flavour, and limited-seat events such as vintage Ocho tequila tastings. Seasonal and celebratory gatherings—New Year’s Eve early and late sessions, cheese and mezcal pairings, and inaugural meetings with guest experts—extend the calendar offering. The Sin Gusano Project works with recognised figures from the agave world; sessions feature hosts such as Jon, who conducts private tastings of exceptional mezcals, and guest experts including Gaby Moncada and Jesse Estes at curated events. Reservations, ticket terms, and venue hours are communicated per event; for example, some sessions note that Sorbito closes at 10 pm. Refund and booking policies are set per offering, including refundable first-drink terms for certain reservations. Focused on education and exploration, The Sin Gusano Project combines carefully selected spirits, storytelling, and guided tasting technique to help attendees deepen their appreciation for agave drinks. Attendees range from curious beginners to experienced collectors seeking rare mezcal and tequila perspectives, with tickets and capacity limited for more attentive, educational tastings and thoughtful conversation.
