The smell of happiness.

Have you ever wondered about a bartender, who reads science books? Well, believe me, modern bartending is kind of a science and if you want to satisfy your guests then you have to reach for unusual knowledge.

For example small tricks with taste or smell, just to make your guest feel comfortable and willing to return. As a modern bartender, you have to constantly leave your comfort zone and learn something new and interesting for your personal development.

Anything you consume, is a multi-sensory process. Your perception of taste is generated by information transmitted to the brain by each of your five senses. That’s why when you taste something familiar, your brain doesn’t recall only flavor, it brings up memories. Including the aroma, surroundings, texture and sound you experienced whilst enjoying that specific flavor. Learn more not only about studies in the field of science called astrophysics and neurogastronomy in my book The Cocktail Balance.
