Get your tickets for a one-of-a-kind dinner hosted by Krug Champagne and chef Theo Clench of London restaurant Cycene
Krug Champagne understands that a single ingredient can take you far. After all, its ability to transform the humble grape into one of the world’s best champagnes has made the company a titan of luxury since 1843. So every year, the house of Krug honours the power of simplicity by celebrating a single ingredient and paying tribute to the pleasures it can reveal .
This year, the brand is celebrating the lemon, and to do so it has called on the talents of one of London’s most buzzed-about chefs. Theo Clench is the executive chef of Cycene, the new restaurant at Shoreditch’s Blue Mountain School. Clench led the restaurant to receive its first Michelin star only five months after opening with an exceptional ten-course tasting menu.
Guests lucky enough to get a seat for the Krug and Clench Single Ingredient dinner will experience a similar multi-course format but with each of the dishes informed by the versatile freshness and texture of lemons. To gain inspiration for the dishes, Clench travelled to Brazil, searching for new ways to interpret a familar ingredient.
Says Clench, ‘It’s a privilege to work with Krug as part of the Single Ingredient experience, which started with an incredible trip to Brazil earlier this year. Taking some of the inspiration I gathered there, I am looking forward to creating a few new dishes that elevate the lemon in interesting ways, but of course, in the usual cooking style I share at Cycene, which celebrates extracting optimum flavour from simple ingredients.
The dinner is priced at £250 per person and is paired with Krug Grande Cuvée 171th Edition, Krug Grande Cuvée 161th Edition, Krug Rose 27th Edition. Sitting at 7pm, 11 July and 12 July 2023.

A history of repeated alcohol intoxication promotes cognitive impairment and gene expression signatures of disease progression in the 3xTg mouse model of Alzheimer’s diseaseThe impact of alcohol abuse on Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is poorly understood. Here, we show that the onset of neurocognitive impairment in a mouse model of AD is hastened by repeated alcohol intoxication through exposure to alcohol vapor, and we provide a comprehensive gene expression dataset of the prefrontal cortex by the single-nucleus RNA sequencing of 113,242 cells. We observed a broad dysregulation of gene expression that involves neuronal excitability, neurodegeneration, and inflammation, including interferon genes. Several genes previously associated with AD in humans by genome-wide association studies were differentially regulated in specific neuronal populations. Gene expression patterns of AD mice with a history of alcohol intoxication were more similar to gene expression signatures of older AD mice with more advanced disease and cognitive impairment than those of younger AD mice with prodromic disease, suggesting that alcohol promotes transcriptional changes consistent with AD progression. Our gene expression dataset at the single-cell level provides a unique resource for investigations of the molecular bases of the detrimental role of excessive alcohol intake in AD. Significance statement Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is the most common neurodegenerative disease worldwide. Many efforts have been geared toward the identification of environmental and genetic risk factors. However, alcohol has received limited attention as a potential risk factor for AD. We explored effects of the interaction of a history of alcohol intoxication with genetic AD susceptibility on cognitive performance and gene expression at the single-cell level. We found that a history of repeated alcohol intoxication promotes the emergence of spatial learning and memory impairments in pre-symptomatic triple transgenic AD (3xTg-AD) mice. We also show that a history of repeated alcohol intoxication induces prefrontal cortex transcriptional changes associated with AD progression.
