Recognized for redefining ingredient-driven mixology, Nico de Soto has earned international acclaim for transforming unexpected flavors into refined cocktails with remarkable technical precision. Often credited with introducing pandan to the global cocktail conversation, the founder of Danico Paris has become one of the defining figures in contemporary bartending. His award-winning bar is currently ranked No. 30 in The World’s 50 Best Bars (2025) and No. 19 in Europe’s 50 Best Bars (2026).

For one evening only, guests will have the rare opportunity to experience a curated selection of de Soto’s signature cocktails. Highlights include Sambal & Un Mars, a bold reinterpretation of the Negroni infused with Balinese sambal matah; Blue Is the Stinkiest Colour, an unexpected harmony of pineapple rum, fennel, green apple, and blue cheese distillate; Sweet Banane, layered with tropical fruit, spices, and whey; and It’s Super Pandan Jelly Time!, a refreshing cocktail that pairs gin, moringa, coconut yogurt, and pandan—an ingredient that has become synonymous with de Soto’s pioneering approach to global flavors.
