How did your passion for cocktails begin, and what led you to become a bartender?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I couldn\u2019t pinpoint a specific moment as if it were an epiphany. I imagine that the gradual way this vocation revealed itself to me is because it\u2019s a profession for adults, made by adults; it\u2019s hard to picture a child dreaming of properly handling and mixing spirits. In fact, parents should probably try to dissuade them. But just as my love for this job slowly developed, once I got to know it (through study and working in large \u2013 both qualitatively and quantitatively speaking \u2013 bar teams), it became irrefutable. I wanted, and still want, to perfect my skills as much as possible. I do a lot of research and keep an eye on colleagues I admire. (We all do this, which is perhaps one of the reasons for the strength of the industry we have. This constant curiosity shapes the sector.)<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">But if I step away from abstraction, I could arbitrarily pinpoint a memory as the starting point. To explain: Salvatore Calabrese appeared on TV with a mixing glass and a reddish drink inside (today I\u2019d assume it was a Negroni), the ice was swirling in circles, and he was smiling kindly at his interlocutor. That small bit of magic in the air sparked great curiosity in me. Some months later, I looked into the training required for the profession and found, in my view, one of the most prestigious and serious courses offered by the Chamber of Commerce. They\u2019re still offering it, of course. So, if you like, you could mark that as the origin, the seed of this beautiful madness that has accompanied me to this day and is my way of life.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image

\/><\/noscript><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Astor is known for its travelling cuisine and the fusion of flavours from Argentina, Peru, France, Italy, and Spain. How do you reflect this diversity in your cocktail creations?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I partially agree with the premise that Astor is a fusion of all those cultures, but I believe that if it is all that, it\u2019s because it\u2019s the result of the people who make it, who work hard and express it gastronomically in that way. In other words, it hasn\u2019t been our goal, the result of a specific business plan \u2013 which wouldn\u2019t be a bad thing, but that wasn\u2019t the case \u2013 but rather the unconscious consequence that all the people present, as well as those who have left, have also left indelible marks, and those marks, the peculiarities of their knowledge and skills, have created this m\u00e9lange that we are pleased to offer today. We have a vocation for change, so I can only partially accept that premise because maybe tomorrow you\u2019ll ask me the same thing but mention a different fusion. However, what remains unchanged is that it will have responded to a shift in the human colour palette of Astor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">At Astor, we all leave our mark; that\u2019s a fact. Therefore, my cocktails are a portrait, also seasonal, of what happens in the restaurant, with its kitchen and its dining area. A dialogue with those characteristics, of travellers; I borrow your imagery. Thus, it would be a sin to avoid innovation or to be complacent. Now, at this precise moment in terms of technique, as a sort of confession to you, with my cocktails, I want to convey what is appropriate with much less. Perhaps it\u2019s because I\u2019m getting older.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-2 is-layout-flex

What has the process of becoming part of this group been like, and what values do you share with the team?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">There haven\u2019t been many changes \u2013 from employee to partner \u2013 in my operational development since I am still very much hands-on. I love the service and its adrenaline. We really are a team, and in the heat of it all, while hierarchies exist for the proper functioning of the business, the role of partner doesn\u2019t take precedence over that of the responsible bartender because, in that moment \u2013 during service \u2013 we\u2019re all equally useful. Once the service is over, of course, the other responsibilities come into play: payroll, fixed and variable costs, inventory, etc.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">My personal story somewhat reflects what I mentioned earlier. I started as an employee for years, and the involvement of both parties \u2013 the business and myself \u2013 was so strong that our marks fused into one. We don\u2019t rule out that this could continue happening with more people who join the family. Why not?<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"681\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/looktheluxury.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/Restaurante-ASTOR_Cocteleria_11.jpg?resize=1024%2C681&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-15222\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/looktheluxury.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/Restaurante-ASTOR_Cocteleria_11.jpg?resize=1024%2C681&amp;ssl=1 1024w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/looktheluxury.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/Restaurante-ASTOR_Cocteleria_11.jpg?resize=300%2C199&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/looktheluxury.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/Restaurante-ASTOR_Cocteleria_11.jpg?resize=789%2C525&amp;ssl=1 789w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/looktheluxury.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/Restaurante-ASTOR_Cocteleria_11.jpg?resize=379%2C253&amp;ssl=1 379w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/looktheluxury.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/Restaurante-ASTOR_Cocteleria_11.jpg?resize=779%2C518&amp;ssl=1 779w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/looktheluxury.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/Restaurante-ASTOR_Cocteleria_11.jpg?resize=302%2C201&amp;ssl=1 302w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/looktheluxury.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/Restaurante-ASTOR_Cocteleria_11.jpg?w=1080&amp;ssl=1 1080w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><noscript><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"681\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/looktheluxury.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/Restaurante-ASTOR_Cocteleria_11.jpg?resize=1024%2C681&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-15222\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/looktheluxury.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/Restaurante-ASTOR_Cocteleria_11.jpg?resize=1024%2C681&amp;ssl=1 1024w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/looktheluxury.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/Restaurante-ASTOR_Cocteleria_11.jpg?resize=300%2C199&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/looktheluxury.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/Restaurante-ASTOR_Cocteleria_11.jpg?resize=789%2C525&amp;ssl=1 789w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/looktheluxury.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/Restaurante-ASTOR_Cocteleria_11.jpg?resize=379%2C253&amp;ssl=1 379w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/looktheluxury.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/Restaurante-ASTOR_Cocteleria_11.jpg?resize=779%2C518&amp;ssl=1 779w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/looktheluxury.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/Restaurante-ASTOR_Cocteleria_11.jpg?resize=302%2C201&amp;ssl=1 302w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/looktheluxury.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/Restaurante-ASTOR_Cocteleria_11.jpg?w=1080&amp;ssl=1 1080w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/noscript><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>The cocktails at Astor stand out for their originality. Can you tell us about one of your favourite cocktails and what makes it special to you?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We have a cocktail called <em>Mr. Piazzolla<\/em>. The name \u201cAstor\u201d pays tribute to the Argentine bandoneon player. When I started working at the restaurant, I honestly didn\u2019t know the musician. One day, before service, we listened to his music attentively, and I remember it was time for <em>Libertango<\/em>. It generated so many different sensations in me, as the piece has many parts that are striking and oscillate maniacally. At times, it also has an incredible calmness. It awakened gustatory sensations in me as well; I discovered synesthesia right there. (If you\u2019re not familiar with <em>Libertango<\/em>, I invite you to listen to it.) I grabbed a pen and got to work, unraveling it ingredient by ingredient. I knew I needed a bitter and a liqueur to maintain that contradiction of highs and lows. The gin and the fino came in later with the second listen and the nuances. The cocktail is still on the menu; we continue to keep that evocation because we believe it\u2019s part of our identity. You are all invited to try it, of course.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>At Look the Luxury, we interviewed Renato Medina, bartender at Astor, one of Madrid\u2019s most innovative bars.
