In the world of fine spirits, true passion goes far beyond what’s poured into the glass. It lives in the stories, the philosophy, and the constant pursuit of growth. In this interview, Antonios shares what draws him to the Negroni, a cocktail he sees as a layered experience that unfolds over time, much like personal and professional growth. From his philosophy on self-improvement to his dream of expanding education within the alcohol and bottling industry, Antonio offers insight into what it truly means to represent a brand with purpose.
What is your favorite cocktail, and why?
My favorite cocktail is the Negroni. I love the balance and the complexity of it—the bitterness, the sweetness, everything working together. It’s a full experience.
What makes the Negroni special to you compared to other cocktails?
What I really love is how it reveals layers of flavor over time. As the drink dilutes, more flavors open up. The profile becomes lighter, fresher, and more expressive the longer you enjoy it.
How would you describe your personal philosophy in life?
My philosophy is that a person should always seek to evolve, improve, and become the best version of themselves.
What is your ultimate dream or goal within the industry?
My ultimate dream is to spread knowledge and education about alcohol and the bottling industry as a whole—to educate as many people as possible.
