“When I create cocktails, I create a story, a journey. It begins with the cocktail name, the vessel, the garnish and the drink, and ends with the way you serve it.”
Georgi Radav’s journey to becoming a famous rum and tiki expert started far away from the bar, as he started his professional life in banking and insurance in Bulgaria. But as he puts it, “You can’t keep a free soul prisoner in an office”, so after a few months of crunching numbers, he left to join the bar world, passing a number of courses offered by the Bulgarian Bartender Association before moving to one of the cocktail capitals of the world, London.
