If you fancy a tipple on a date in an unusual setting, then a recent exhibition in London may be just what you are looking for.

Alcoholic Architecture is a new bar whereby visitors enter a room filled with alcohol vapour. Organisers claim that after spending 40 minutes in the boozy haze, revellers will have consumed the equivalent of a 'large alcoholic drink'.

The company Bompas & Parr said that consumers will be able to inhale their favourite beverages after they created the world's first "weather system for the tongue".

Alcoholic Architecture works by transforming drink into a mist and uses humidifiers to create a cloud made up of one part alcoholic spirit to three parts mixer.

Consumers are then able to absorb the alcohol through their eyelids and lungs, in the bar which has a humidity level at 140 per cent.

The bar is set to be launched at Borough Market in Southwark and will run for six months.

Visitors to the bar don protective suits before entering the walk-in cloud of breathable cocktail which they then inhale or breathe in through their eyelids.

The protective suits help to protect a person's clothing from humidity.

Sam Bompas, a director of the firm, said that doctors helped to calculate the ratio of alcohol to mixer.

He said: "We were working with respiratory scientists and chemists to calculate safe lengths of time that visitors can remain in the cloud.

“It’s a complex series of calculations taking in ratio of spirit to mixer, room size, number of people in the room, air change, lung capacity and rate of alcohol absorption.”

Visitors will be restricted to one visit per day and are only allowed in for up to an hour.

A number of beverages are on offer, including Buckfast.ADNFCR-2867-ID-801794854-ADNFCR
