With over 124 participating bars in Klang Valley, Penang, and Johor Bahru, guests are invited to exchange their cucumber for a perfectly crafted Hendrick's Gin & Tonic.

Ramlee), Kuna (TREC), Over & Above KL, or Gloglo by Over & Above Penang will stand a chance to win the Hendrick's Hotel Pack through a special lucky draw. 'Hendrick's Gin is infused with the curious, yet marvellous, essences of rose and cucumber. The cucumber has long been at the heart of Hendrick's Gin, which is why we're inviting curious individuals to take part in this annual ritual. With one humble fruit, you can exchange for a Hendrick's Gin & Tonic that is as crisp, refreshing, and delightfully smooth as the gin itself,' said Hendrick's Gin Southeast Asia Brand Ambassador, Charmaine Thio. Hendrick's Gin is a brand that brings a refreshing twist to tradition, turning even the simple act of ordering a Gin & Tonic into a moment of delight and discovery. At the heart of this philosophy lies the cucumber, a fruit Hendrick's Gin has always held in the highest regard. Through a refined distillation process, Hendrick's is curiously infused with rose and cucumber, resulting in a gin that is both exquisitely smooth and intriguingly complex. And of course, no Hendrick's cocktail is truly complete without a final flourish: a slice of cucumber, cut from the very fruit that gives Hendrick's its pleasingly unusual character. So gather your cucumbers, rally your curious companions, and prepare to step into a world where the peculiar is prized and the refreshing awaits. With just one simple exchange, you'll unlock a moment of oddity, and a Hendrick's Gin & Tonic quite unlike any other.

Missing British man found dead at the bottom of a lift shaft in Malaysia
A body found at the bottom of a lift shaft in Malaysia is that of a British backpacker who disappeared more than a week ago. Jordan Johnson-Doyle, 25, vanished after last being seen at a bar in Kuala Lumpur on May 27. His family issued an emotional appeal to find him and even flew out to the country to help the police search. But his body was found in a construction site lift shaft in Bangsar, Kuala Lumpur, on Wednesday, Malaysian authorities confirmed. A post-mortem found the 25-year-old's cause of death as a chest injury sustained from a fall from height. Police chief Rusdi Mohd Isa said no criminal elements were found at the scene. The mystery of Jordan's whereabouts began when his phone went dead on Friday, May 30, during his 18-month backpacking journey across Asia. He had been working for an American company on his travels and arrived in Malaysia on May 17 from Vietnam. The 25-year-old from Stockport had last sent his best friend Owen a photo from inside Healy Mac's Irish Bar in Bangsar on the evening of Tuesday, May 27. It is also believed the software engineer visited The Social, a bar near Healy Macs. Mum Leanne Burnett, 44, checked 'Find My iPhone' tracking service and saw Jordan's phone was in a residential flat nearby the next day. But two days later, his phone went dead, which concerned the family as Jordan regularly checked in with family. Leanne had only just spoken to Jordan on the Monday of that week, when seemed 'fine and normal', she told the Liverpool Echo. With the search for Jordan running dry, Leanne and her husband travelled to Kuala Lumpur to look for their son. Merseyside Police also confirmed their officers were working with local detectives to find the software engineer. Brickfields district police chief Ku Mashariman Ku Mahmood confirmed to AFP that Jordan's body was the one found on the construction site. More Trending A FCDO Spokesperson said: 'We are supporting the family of a British man who died in Malaysia and are in contact with the local authorities.' The family previously spoke of their devastation as they tried to find Jordan. Leanne said: 'I have been been feeling just sick, numb. I just want to get over there, find him and bring him home. 'I want him to know we're looking for him and we're coming to get him.' Get in touch with our news team by emailing us at webnews@ For more stories like this, check our news page.

British man missing in KL since last week
KUALA LUMPUR: The disappearance of Jordan Johnson-Doyle (pic) a week ago has left his family distraught. The bespectacled, brown-haired Briton was last seen in Healy Mac's Irish Bar in Bangsar at 8pm last Tuesday, when he sent his best friend Owen a photograph of the pub's quiz night poster, reported the United Kingdom's Daily Mail. The daily reported that the 25-year-old software engineer had been on a solo trip to the Mediterranean and South-East Asia while working remotely for about a year and a half. The medium-built, 180cm-tall man arrived in Malaysia on May 17 and is believed to have been staying at Robertson Residences Bukit Bintang before vanishing without a trace. Daily Mail quoted Johnson's mother, Leanne Burnett, 44, as saying that she first became concerned after failing to reach her son for their daily call last Tuesday. She spoke to him on May 26, talking about their usual work matters, adding that he sounded normal. Her concern intensified after further attempts to get in touch with her son via phone and social media failed, with her son's phone believed to have gone dead since May 30. According to Burnett, based on the 'Find My iPhone' tracking service, the phone was last located at a residential flat near Healy Mac's on May 28. Burnett and the rest of the Johnson family have since posted on various social media sites for leads on the missing person. 'My son is missing in Kuala Lumpur. Please help us find him; all his family and friends are so worried. Please, please share share share. 'If you have any information, no matter how small, please DM me directly or WhatsApp on +44 7754718679,' wrote Burnett on a Malaysian missing persons Facebook group on May 31. The distressed mother also told the daily that family members, including herself, as well as friends, are travelling to Malaysia to search for Johnson. The family has already lodged reports with the British High Commission and the police and are appealing for public assistance in the search.
