Aiding in the artistic craft of the signature
French flare cocktails are the exotic bees found
in the rooftop beehives. Sofitel Washington
DC Lafayette Square takes pride in recruiting
this selection of bees to provide organic honey
featured in select cocktails. Along with helping
pollinate local trees and flowers throughout
the city, the respected bees create a defining
ingredient in Opaline’s Bee Mine cocktail. The
drink is a delicate mixture of Tanqueray, Saint
Germain, and Sofitel “Le Miel” – the honey
produced by the bees. The versatile beverage
program at Sofitel Washington DC Lafayette
Square is unmatched for these unique French
renditions on classic cocktails.
Sofitel Washington DC Lafayette Square is
situated in the heart of Washington and aims to
highlight the culture and lifestyle reflected in the
city. Although current trends triumph, tradition
is made relevant with respectful nods to French
culture found in décor elements, cocktails cre-
ations and Opaline Bar & Brasserie’s culinary
artistry. Sofitel Washington DC Lafayette Square
is a comforting scene where modern culture and
traditional elegance collide in perfect harmony.
