Cliveden '66
The Cliveden 66 cocktail toasts the year 1666, when Cliveden House was built as a monument to a national scandal. The Duke of Buckingham, having taken the Earl of Shrewsbury’s wife, Anna Maria as his mistress, challenged Shrewsbury to a duel - and won. He claimed Anna Maria as his prize and commissioned George Villiers to build a magnificent estate on high ground, overlooking the Thames, in her honour.
