My first year at Tales...
The FOMO from watching friends, family & colleagues lapping up Tales over the past few years finally got the better of me so I had to come this year and cannot wait to get stuck in with so many like minded industry nerds.
19yrs industry experience, ex Kiwi bar owner operator, World Class Global competitor and now based in Dubai as the Luxury Brands Ambassador working with...
Diageo Reserve, William Grants, Remy Cointreau, Beam, Cuervo, Matusalum, Beluga & more.
