  • Meet Your Mixologist Simon Ford | Société Perrier
    Meet Your Mixologist: Simon Ford | Société Perrier Bartender Simon Ford knows how to sling spirits. Hailing originally from London, Ford, like many of his compatriots, spent his early years making the rounds before his bar responsibilities mandated it. “I was a college dropout. I really had no choice,” he explained over coffee during his visit to the recent Portland (Oregon) Cocktail Week. “I was studying economics, and did one year of that, and I really didn’t like it. I decided to travel to Eastern Europe, the Berlin Wall and such, and when I came back, there really wasn’t much to do. So I got a job at a wine shop.” “It wasn’t much, twenty hours a week. I moved up from assistant manager to manager and so on. It was fine wines and overseas spirits, and I remember buying my first bottle of cachaça and making caipirinhas because it came with a muddler. Distributors gave us bottles and taught us about the spirits we were selling, and information that we would learn so we could recommend based on our own tastes. But I wasn’t really into cocktails until then.” Winning awards while securing his Wine and Spirits Education Certificate, Ford was ultimately offered the position as International Ambassador for Seagram’s, where he helped to bring Plymouth Gin to the masses. “It was back in the 80s, and they were spending a lot of time and money focusing on bartenders,” he says. “I met all these great people who are considered legends in the industry like Dick Bradsell, Tony Conigliaro.

  • Sustainable Drinking Bars in China: Evidence, Initiatives, and Guidelines Based on the 2030 Agenda
    sustainability Article Sustainable Drinking Bars in China: Evidence, Initiatives, and Guidelines Based on the 2030 Agenda Yuanbo Li School of Public Policy and Management, Institute for Sustainable Development Goals, Tsinghua University, Beijing 100084, China; [email protected] Received: 3 December 2019; Accepted: 3 January 2020; Published: 7 January 2020 Abstract: China is a fascinating market in terms of alcohol consumption. Although drinking bars originated in the West, economic and societal developments have spread the concept throughout China. In 2017, there were approximately 59,600 drinking bars in China, with a 44.06 billion RMB market size. Given societal development, the Chinese bar industry has gradually paid attention to environmental protection and sustainable development. A sustainable bar adopts a management model that reduces and recycles waste and saves energy. The social responsibility of bars is reflected in sustainable consumption. The concept of sustainable bars has been well-received worldwide. The 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development (2030 Agenda) provides direction on sustainable development to relevant stakeholders. The 2030 Agenda contains 17 interactive Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), including the SDG12. Thus, it is important to explore the development of Chinese sustainable bars under the 2030 Agenda and the 17 SDGs. Hence, the Institute for Sustainable Development Goals (TUSDG) of Tsinghua University, Pernod Ricard China, and Kantar China organized one tripartite research group and conducted investigations on drinking bars from three megacities (Shanghai, Shenzhen, and Beijing) to explore the situation, recognition, perspectives, and actions of sustainable bars in China. The results have significant implications. Moreover, the three parties jointly released the “Sustainable Bar Operation Initiatives” and the “Operational Sustainable Bar Application Guidelines” for the bar industry in China.

For rum— which also lists a long, torrid affair with umbrella drinks and an on-again, off-again thing with frozen- daiquiri machines in its relationship history—it’s been a long, lonely time since respectable suitors came calling. “Rum is the underdog of the spirits world,” says Matt Robold, a Southern California rum enthusiast who blogs at RumDood.com. “When people think of fine drinking, they think of whiskey or eight-times- distilled vodka—they turn their noses up at rum. Largely that’s because they’re only familiar with the low- end stuff, so as an aficionado you feel like you have to evangelize it.” It’s identified primarily with the Caribbean, but rum is a global spirit, distilled in more than 100 countries and with roots in places ranging from Thailand to Tennessee and New England to Australia. At its simplest, rum is a spirit derived from sugarcane, but rum is rarely simple. Adapted by each producer in each place to suit their own needs, rum has countless styles that together form a broad, boozy diaspora, making it one of the most diverse—and confusing—spirits to ever grace a glass.
