In 2008, the bartender was playing around with Sake at the Cabinet Room in London and so the Damn It Jimmy cocktail was born. He himself calls it “probably the best drink he has developed” and, as he was thinking what to call the cocktail, the track he was listening to ended and the singer exclaimed, “Damn it Jimmy” to his fellow artists, expressing how good the track was. The cocktail was named!
