Tiki has never been a single drink, but in this case the name points to one specific modern cocktail. The IBA Tiki is not a broad label for tropical classics such as the Mai Tai or the Zombie. It is a defined drink connected to the International Bartenders Association, Cuban bartending culture, and a recent […]

Cognac did not become a global spirit because of vineyards alone. Its rise depended on water, ships, and merchants long before it depended on distilleries. The identity of Cognac was shaped as much by the port of Bordeaux as by the chalk soils of Charente. Without Bordeaux’s access to Atlantic trade routes, cognac would likely […]

The Garnish arrives at the end of preparation, yet it often leads the guest’s first impression. Before the drink reaches the palate, the eye registers colour and form while the nose encounters aroma rising from the glass. Garnish therefore belongs to the sensory language of the cocktail. It can clarify identity, prepare expectations, and complete […]

There’s a point where simplicity stops being effortless and starts being precise. In Italy, that line is easy to miss. Aperitivo culture has always favoured clarity over complexity, drinks that don’t need explanation, only consistency. But translating that quiet balance into a competitive environment is something else entirely. That’s where Michael Moreni’s work sits. His […]

Jamaica’s Rum story begins with sugar estates, limestone water, heavy fermentations, coastal trade, and a landscape where cane became both wealth and memory. The island’s reputation was not made by one house or one parish. It grew across estates, distilleries, ports, and rural communities where sugar production and rum making became inseparable from the country’s […]

The shift from a standard Margarita to a Grand Margarita happens in a single substitution, but the change is immediate in the glass. Where most builds rely on lighter orange liqueurs, this version is structured around Grand Marnier, introducing a deeper, more weighted profile that alters how the drink is perceived from the first sip. […]

Madeiran rum exists within a narrow technical and geographic framework that resists abstraction. Unlike Caribbean or Latin American rum traditions shaped by scale and export, rum production on Madeira remains tied to fresh sugarcane juice, seasonal distillation, and localised milling. From the northern coast at Porto da Cruz to the southern town of Calheta, a […]

From bartender competition to global industry platform The modern cocktail world has developed far beyond the traditional image of the bartender as a skilled server behind a bar. Over the past two decades, bartending has increasingly been recognised as a professional discipline built on technical knowledge, hospitality, creativity and a deeper understanding of spirits.

Sam Chatterji’s work sits inside that transition. His early career was not defined by a single venue, but by movement across training, service, and education. Instead of focusing only on bar programs, he became closely involved in building structure, developing training systems, mentoring bartenders, and connecting local talent to global standards. In a market where […]

Venezuela’s Rum identity grew from sugarcane, climate, trade, and the long conversion of cane byproducts into aged spirit. The country’s geography offered heat, sunlight, fertile cane areas, and a tropical maturation environment that gave rum a different economic and cultural role from wine spirits, grain spirits, or orchard spirits. Ron de Venezuela became legally important […]
