🌀Funky Explorer
normal is boring
You order what nobody recognises: wild, fermented, natural, experimental.
Who is the Funky Explorer?
Funky Explorers treat the drinks list as a dare. Orange wine, wild ferments, mezcal, lambic, coffee processed in ways most people can't pronounce — the weirder the better. Familiar is fine for everyone else; you're here for the bottle nobody at the table recognises.

Novelty is the point — funky, fermented, the bottle nobody else recognises.
