Manage episode 364636241 series 3334774
How did growing up in an Italian ice cream shop lead to owning the world's best bar?
Join us as we chat with Giacomo Giannotti about his incredible journey from humble beginnings to achieving international acclaim with his Barcelona-based bar, Paradiso, current #1 on the World's 50 Best Bars list. Listen in as we explore the lessons he learned along the way, how his experiences in London at places like B@1 shaped his hospitality expertise, and the inspiration behind his world-renowned establishment.
But that's not all! We also dive into the fascinating world of truffle-infused spirits, taste Paradiso's experimentaL new white truffle amaro, and hear my stories of creating a cognac that complements the flavor of truffle. We discuss the process, the challenges faced, and the impact of Paradiso's prestigious title on the spirits industry.
From speakeasies to post-pandemic customer attitudes, we'll touch on the evolution of the bar scene and the future of bartending, including Paradiso's bar training program. We'll also explore the influence of iconic venues like Rum Trader in Berlin and Milk and Honey in New York, and discuss the importance of investing in quality drinks and service to meet the needs of the new generation of drinkers. So, grab your favorite cocktail and join us for this captivating conversation that takes you behind the scenes of the world's number one bar, Paradiso!

They need to be able to hang.
Oh, plus we don't edit, and we won’t supply prepared or sample questions, or listener or “reach” stats, either.)
