Strangers in Scotland involves non-endemic ingredients that grow happily in Scotland but originally came from other parts of Britain and the world. It also includes Campari, in honour of Venice for the 60th Venice Art Biennale. Vadim Grigoryan, Co-founder of X MUSE, and Michele, Bibo’s Bar Manager, found inspiration in the 60th Venice Art Biennale, where Strangers in Scotland was first served in X MUSE’s ‘Art Bar’ during the vernissage of the international art exhibition.
