Between design and mixology: Matteo Cibic's new collaboration with Hendrick's

The new 'Flora Adora' limited edition gin is the star of a special project celebrating the marriage of flowers and insects. A dreamlike garden in the heart of Milan can be visited from 15 to 21 May.

"Flora Adora Exhibition" is the title of the dreamlike garden imagined by Matteo Cibic at the Al Naviglio location in Milan, open to the public from 15 to 21 May. A special setting that welcomes flamboyant animals, animated and multicoloured plants by Cibic, flanked by Hendrick's Flora Adora: the new limited edition celebrating the synergy between flowers and insects.

"Insects are small and celebrating small things is the starting point. The exhibition offers a different point of view, where the small are us and they are magical, dynamic and big creatures, as big as their contribution to this Earth," said Matteo Cibic, testifying to his awareness of a global cause that threatens the Planet's biodiversity. "Pollination is thus emblematic of the truth that all living organisms are interdependent. Plants and insects communicate with each other in extraordinary ways, and all life benefits from the resulting connection and collaboration. And in the midst of these infinite chain links, man too is called upon to react, also through the powerful medium of art'.

The floral works of Matteo Cibic and the signature cocktails created by Solomiya, Hendrick's brand ambassador for Italy, land in Via Ludovico Il Moro 117 after a tour in Milan, Naples, Florence and Rome, and come together in the Lombard capital to be admired and savoured in Via Lodovico Il Moro 117. Between art and mixology, for the whole week, two signature cocktails will be available for tasting: "Flora Adora & Tonic", made by mixing Hendrick's Flora Adora, tonic water and cucumber, and "Flora Adora Wildgarden Cup", prepared with Hendrick's Flora Adora, lemon juice, sugar syrup, soda top, raspberries, mint and cucumber.
