Storytime with Lyaness

This class already took place. Watch the recording here.


How does London’s award-winning Lyaness bar approach cocktail development, menu planning and guest experience? 

On July 15, Ryan “Mr Lyan” Chetiyawardana and Lyaness Head Bartender Louis Macpherson join us to lift the curtain on their approach to the What, How, and Why of storytelling, and using it to gift teams and guests a richer experience.

You’ll learn:

  • Drink Development: How does the concept of a tornado become a Sazerac riff?
  • Explain (just enough): Creating good drop lines & sharing not oversharing
  • Team Work: Empowering and building your team!
