Simone Caporale

Simone Caporale

Simone Caporale is an internationally renowned bartender with a distinctive personal style who is known for his attention to detail, playful presentation and exceptional approach to service. Born in Como, Italy, Simone began refining his mixology craft in bars all around Europe before making his way to the cocktail mecca of the world, London.

След като работи в няколко различни луксозни заведения, Симоне се присъединява към Artesian в The Langham Hotel, едно от най-добрите коктейлни заведения в Лондон. И под негово наблюдение, заедно с Алекс Кратена, двамата помогнаха на Artesian да спечели титлата –  „Най-добър бар в света“ през 2014 г., същата година Симоне беше отличен и с наградата „Международен барман на годината.“

For Simone, great cocktails are just one part in a larger bar experience, and he works to activate all the patron’s senses in both the cocktail, the presentation of the drink, and the ambiance of the space it’s being served. His expertise doesn’t stop with his ability to craft unique flavors into a drink, he and his team work tirelessly to also create the perfect environment for that cocktail to be enjoyed in. Every cocktail experience tells a unique story, and Simone, simply put, is one of the best “storytellers” on the planet.
