Returning for the first time since 2021, the British Chamber's Summer Garden Party celebrates the start of summer and the official birthday of His Majesty The King. This special evening of delicious barbecue food, free-flow beer and wine, and musical entertainment is an annual favourite of the Beijing social calendar, and a celebration of the Great British Summer – but hopefully with better weather!

All-you-can-eat delicious barbecue: sliders, fish and chips, sausages, etc., provided by Hotel Jen Beijing
Free flow craft beers, provided by Beersmith Gastropub
Canapes and desserts
Live music from some of Beijing's top bands
Strawberries and cream, Pimm's, and a whole host of other British summer favourites
BlueStar AMG was actually founded in 2009 by an established management team that had already functioned for a number of years previously (since 2003) who felt there was a need for a different type of company with a client centric approached based around core values and behaviours. We are a British Owned, Hong Kong registered group, with the bulk of the operations in Mainland China and with satellite offices across Asia. Our main focus is Financial Planning and Asset Management with additional capabilities in Investment Property and Domestic Insurance. In addition to our offerings and services, what truly sets us apart is our approach. By aligning the interests of our clients and our people, we are able to place the customers interests above all others so our customers can be assured that with us, there is no self-interest – only a shared interest. Advice is given with procedures are independently monitored and reviewed on a regular basis.
The story of Hayman’s started way back in 1863, when our great-great-grandfather pioneered the distinctive taste of London Dry Gin. Fast forward 160 years, and the London Dry style has become the most popular gin on the planet. We’re still proud to put his original recipe in every bottle.
As an independent family business, we really care about what we make, who we work with and the people who enjoy our gin. Family is at the heart of everything we do. Our Hayman’s London Distillery is home to tours, cocktail masterclasses and more, but above all it’s where we make our great-tasting gins, distilling ten botanicals over two full days in gleaming copper stills named after female family members Marjorie, Karin and Miranda.
It’s also where our family history meets our future. This is where we innovate and experiment to find new flavours and expressions, such as Hayman’s London Light which offers a low alcohol G&T but with no compromise on taste. And it’s where we find new ways to make our business sustainable, such as sourcing renewable ingredients and reducing our carbon emissions. We are proud to now be B Corp certified, meeting the highest standards of social and environmental performance and committed to having a positive impact on our people and planet.
