The cocktail: New York, The Bvlgari Bar - Bvlgari Resort Dubai
This cocktail is inspired by the famous New York Sour, IBA's official cocktail in the New Era Drinks category, whose alcoholic shoulder is given by Rye or Bourbon Whiskey supported by red wine. The interpretation proposed by Bvlgari Bar Dubai employs the clarification process - Milk Wash technique - which, through the coagulation of milk with citric acid, allows the discoloration of the drink. To give a touch of Italy is the addition of coffee, Galliano Vanilla and finally red wine, produced on Giovanni Bulgari's estate in the Sienese countryside. Passion fruit, on the other hand, pays homage to the United Arab Emirates and makes the drink appreciated to Dubai customers. Due to the similarity of the aromatic notes, the drink is reminiscent of mulled wine, a traditional drink of the winter season in Italy.
The bartender, Dario Schiavoni
Dario Schiavoni, born in 1990, is originally from Rome, where he took his first steps in the world of hospitality at La Pergola restaurant of the Hotel Rome Cavalieri under chef Heinz Beck. His passion then travelled around the world, passing through London and moving to Algarve, where he opened his own restaurant, of which he is the manager. The management of restaurants and bars was accompanied by a love for mixology, which took him to Asia at the beginning of 2017 for the opening of the Bvlgari Hotel Beijing as Director of the Niko Romito Restaurant and the Bvlgari Bar. After a year of dedication, passion and leadership, he was promoted as Food & Beverage Assistant Director, managing all the hotel outlets. The next stop was in the United Arab Emirates, where since 2020 he has successfully managed the Bvlgari Bar of the Bvlgari Resort Dubai as Bar Director. Curating the Bvlgari Symposia Mixology initiative, he organizes events in partnership with the 50 Best Bars in all Bvlgari Hotels & Resorts.
