Agri/Culture II has arrived at Little Red Door, the Paris bar’s sequel to its Agri/Culture menu that launched in September 2025 and established the venue’s procurement-first philosophy. The new list, available from Monday, October 26, 2026, maps four of France’s primary climate regions, Oceanic, Continental, Mountain, and Mediterranean, through twelve cocktails drawn from the ingredients, farming traditions, and shifting landscapes that define each one.
Every region unfolds across three periods: Past, Present, and Future. The past honors regional heritage and traditional farming practices, the present reflects contemporary agriculture and the pressures facing farming communities today, and the future imagines how ingredients and cultivation may evolve in response to climate change. Developed collaboratively by the full team under Head Bartender Léa Longayrou and Bar Manager Lisa Rotoni, the bar calls it its most ambitious menu development to date.
The Oceanic Region, from Dairy to Dulse
The journey begins in the Oceanic region. Beurre, representing the past, is a rich Grey Goose-based sparkling serve inspired by the dairy traditions of Western Europe, built around notes of butter, fresh bread, and apple. Kiwi, the present-day expression, is a vibrant non-alcoholic cocktail featuring lemon verbena and bright citrus. Looking ahead, Algue turns to marine agriculture with a savory blend of whisky, aged Calvados, and dried dulse seaweed, imagining a future in which marine resources play an increasingly significant role in how we eat and drink.
Continental Orchards and Resilient Crops
The Continental chapter opens with Mirabelle, an elegant combination of Mirabelle plum brandy, vanilla, and Hennessy VSOP that pays tribute to the orchards that have long shaped Central and Eastern Europe. Noix highlights the diversification of tree crops in the present day through an alcohol-free blend of walnut and non-alcoholic amaro. Tournesol closes the section with a rum-based cocktail layered with apricot, honey, and clover, celebrating crops capable of thriving in increasingly demanding conditions.
Mountain Pastures, Pine Forests, and Plant Proteins
In the Mountain region, Fromage evokes traditional pastoral systems passed down through generations, combining Anaë Gin, wild rose, cornflower, and Ossau-Iraty cheese. Pin reflects contemporary forestry landscapes through a blend of gin, rye whiskey, and pine, while Lentille looks forward with a savory alcohol-free serve built around mustard and soy, a nod to the rise of plant-based proteins and new ways of thinking about how we grow and consume.
A Mediterranean Finale Built on an Ancient Ingredient
The final chapter heads south. Olive pays tribute to the historic olive groves synonymous with Southern Europe, blending Bear Brothers Vodka with black and green olives and Chartreuse. Citron captures the region today with a bright, floral combination of St-Germain, lemon, sorbet, lavender, and honey. The menu concludes with Caroube, in which Cointreau and Rémy Martin 1738 are paired with carob and cream, spotlighting an ancient ingredient uniquely positioned to thrive in a changing climate and closing the list on a hopeful note.
Design That Travels with the Menu
The concept extends well beyond the glass. Created in collaboration with Bold Design, the Agri/Culture II menu takes its cues from the world of travel, unfolding like a road map that guides guests through the regions and flavors within. The bar itself has been reimagined in partnership with creative agencies ADC and Damien Carreres, with bespoke furniture developed around the new concept. Material details reinforce the narrative throughout the room, from cork artworks by textile artist Lucille Drouet, inspired by the menu’s four climates, to reclaimed 17th-century rustic linen incorporated into the team’s uniforms.
“Agri/Culture II marks an important step in the evolution of Little Red Door,” says Hyacinthe Lescoët, co-owner of Little Red Door. “Following the success of our previous menu, we wanted to further explore the relationship we’ve built with the agricultural world. While this launch brings new design elements, uniforms and experiences to the venue, the identity of Little Red Door remains unchanged. Our signature red door, our warm hospitality and the sense of fun that defines the bar are all still at the heart of what we do. It’s important for us to keep evolving, but just as important to stay connected to our roots.”
A New Chapter for a Paris Institution
Tucked behind its signature crimson doorway, Little Red Door has long been one of Paris’s most celebrated cocktail bars and a regular fixture on The World’s 50 Best Bars list, and No. 93 on The 50 Best Bars 2026 51-100 list. In summer 2024, the bar entered a new chapter when it was acquired by Hugo Gallou and Hyacinthe Lescoët, co-founders of The Cambridge, Paris, following a period of administration. Agri/Culture II arrives as the new ownership’s most ambitious project yet, a menu program that treats French agriculture as both subject and supply chain while keeping the bar’s identity intact.
Agri/Culture II is available at Little Red Door, 60 Rue Charlot, 75003 Paris, from Monday, October 26, 2026. The bar is open daily from 5pm to 2am.
