Three martinis, two experts and a sea view at Carbis Bay’s ONE MOR

Three glasses. Three garnishes. And two people who think about martinis far more than the rest of us ever will.

ONE MOR, the bar at MOR by Tom Sellers on Carbis Bay Estate, has teamed up with award-winning Cornish producer Trevethan Gin to launch its new festive martini menu. The occasion is MORtini Night, taking place on Thursday 3 December 2026.

Three martinis, two hosts

Guests will work their way through ONE MOR’s new martini menu, with three martinis served alongside garnishes picked to bring out the flavour and character of each one.

Hosting the evening are John Hall, Trevethan’s founder and Master Distiller, and Joe Bakewell, Head Mixologist at ONE MOR. Between them they’ll talk through their crafts, looking at how botanicals, technique and the finishing touches shape the way a martini tastes.

Joe said: “With our new martini menu, we wanted to explore how technique, ingredients and garnish can give each serve its own character while keeping the spirit at the heart of the drink. Having John here allows us to share that process from both sides of the bar, and MORtini Night is a chance to explore it together.”

A Cornish gin from a 1929 recipe

Trevethan started life as a rediscovered Cornish bathtub gin recipe dating back to 1929. John revived it and launched the brand in 2015, pairing those local roots with a scientific approach to distilling.

Its flagship Original 1929 Dry Gin uses ten botanicals, among them hand-picked Cornish elderflower and gorse flower. The gin has picked up the IWSC National Gin Producer Trophy in 2021, an IWSC Gold Outstanding for Original 1929 in 2022 with a score of 98/100, and a San Francisco World Spirits Competition Gold in 2024.

Carly Fordy, Brand Manager at Trevethan Gin, said: “We’re delighted to partner with the ONE MOR team for an evening that gives guests a deeper understanding of gin and the creativity that goes into making a great martini. With John and Joe together, it’s a wonderful opportunity to discover the spirit’s versatility, take home new ideas and get into the Christmas spirit.”

ONE MOR at Carbis Bay Estate

ONE MOR is its 40-seat bar, looking out over the bay. It serves cocktails and lighter bites, and you don’t need to be dining at the restaurant to drop in for a drink.
