Hendrick's Gin Brings Back The Cucumber Currency Exchange At Over 124 Bars In KL, Penang & JB
In the peculiar world of Hendrick's Gin, cucumber is not merely a garnish. It is a celebrated symbol of the unusual, a curious twist that transforms the mundane into the marvelously unexpected. From 27th June to 3rd July 2025, Hendrick's Gin invites curious individuals across Malaysia to embrace their inner oddity as it brings back the Cucumber Currency Exchange – a refreshingly unconventional celebration that begins, quite literally, with a cucumber. Bring A Cucumber. Receive A Hendrick's Gin & Tonic The currency? A humble cucumber. The reward? A refreshing Hendrick's Gin & Tonic. With over 124 participating bars in Klang Valley, Penang, and Johor Bahru, guests are invited to exchange their cucumber for a perfectly crafted Hendrick's Gin & Tonic. Simply present a cucumber of all shapes, lengths, and types at any participating bar to receive a complimentary Hendrick's Gin & Tonic in return! And if you're caught cucumber-less? Fret not. Keep an eye out for the Hendrick's roving team as they pop up across Klang Valley, handing out curious cucumbers to the unprepared. Once equipped, simply head to any participating bar and trade it in for a crisp, refreshing Hendrick's & Tonic. Selected outlets will be transformed with full venue takeovers, offering immersive Hendrick's experiences with exclusive giveaways. Guests who purchase a bottle of Hendrick's at Chateau DeCanter (Damansara Utama), Healy Mac (Jalan P. Ramlee), Kuna (TREC), Over & Above KL, or Gloglo by Over & Above Penang will stand a chance to win the Hendrick's Hotel Pack through a special lucky draw. 'Hendrick's Gin is infused with the curious, yet marvellous, essences of rose and cucumber. The cucumber has long been at the heart of Hendrick's Gin, which is why we're inviting curious individuals to take part in this annual ritual. With one humble fruit, you can exchange for a Hendrick's Gin & Tonic that is as crisp, refreshing, and delightfully smooth as the gin itself,' said Hendrick's Gin Southeast Asia Brand Ambassador, Charmaine Thio. Hendrick's Gin is a brand that brings a refreshing twist to tradition, turning even the simple act of ordering a Gin & Tonic into a moment of delight and discovery. At the heart of this philosophy lies the cucumber, a fruit Hendrick's Gin has always held in the highest regard. Through a refined distillation process, Hendrick's is curiously infused with rose and cucumber, resulting in a gin that is both exquisitely smooth and intriguingly complex. And of course, no Hendrick's cocktail is truly complete without a final flourish: a slice of cucumber, cut from the very fruit that gives Hendrick's its pleasingly unusual character. So gather your cucumbers, rally your curious companions, and prepare to step into a world where the peculiar is prized and the refreshing awaits. With just one simple exchange, you'll unlock a moment of oddity, and a Hendrick's Gin & Tonic quite unlike any other.

Hendrick's Gin is giving away free cocktails this World Cucumber Day – here's how to score one
June just got a little more curious. Building on last year's wildly delightful run, Hendrick's Great Cucumber Exchange is back – and it's as wonderfully whimsical as ever. In honour of World Cucumber Day on June 14, Hendrick's Gin invites you to embrace the whimsy by trading in a humble cucumber for its gin-based tipple at over 95 participating restaurants and bars across Singapore from June 16 to 19. Because why use cash or card when you can pay with a cucumber? It's a curiously fun twist to cocktail culture – just the way Hendrick's Gin likes it. Why cucumbers? Hendrick's Gin isn't just using cucumbers for novelty. It's quite literally in the unusual spirit. The gin's famously smooth, floral flavour comes from a unique distillation process that infuses cucumber and rose, alongside a blend of 11 botanicals, making the inimitable green fruit more than just a garnish – it's in Hendrick's DNA. What are the free Hendrick's Gin cocktails? This year, you get to choose between Hendrick's Flora Adora & Tonic and Hendrick's Grand Cabaret & Tonic, the latest limited edition releases from Hendrick's Cabinet of Curiosities. Hendrick's Flora Adora is an English garden in a glass, bringing together juniper, coriander, and sweet botanicals with a flourish of Hendrick's signature herbal charm. Hendrick's Grand Cabaret, on the other hand, is a lush, fruity number that gives you a taste of Parisian history. It's laced with stone fruit notes, fresh herbs, and enough pizzazz to have your taste buds doing the cancan. Paired with fizzy, slightly sweet tonic water, both make for a well-balanced, flavour-forward post-work pick-me-up. How do I get one? Start by signing up here to receive your e-voucher. Then present your e-voucher and cucumber at any one of the participating venues, including Al Capone's, Another Bar, Middle Child, and LECOQ. Each exchange is valid for one drink per outlet. Check out the full list of venues here. No cucumber? You can still join in the fun too If you're in the CBD, keep your eyes peeled and your hands ready for Hendrick's dapper Cucumber Town Council. They will be roving the streets at lunch hours, handing out spare cucumbers, which are redeemable for a delectable gin libation at participating bars nearby. Catch them at these locations: June 16 Raffles Place MRT station Capita Spring Building June 17 Marina Bay Financial Centre Tower 1 & 2 Commerce Street Marina Food House June 18 Amoy Food Street Walkway to Telok Ayer Park Capital Tower June 19 Asia Square Marina Food Hous Lau Pa Sat
