The Vezené Group includes Athens venues such as Vezene Athens, Birdman Bar & Grill, Ekiben Kitchen and Ikigai Japanese Market.
Karipidis is also the bar manager at One&Only Aesthesis, a coastal hotel near the Greek town of Glyfada.
“It’s the best job in the world. The diversity and the unexpected situations intrigue me,” said Karipidis about working in the spirits industry.
The cocktail, named Mataroa Highball, is based on a G&T and features sweet white flowers and a subtly mineral taste. It strikes a balance between London Dry and Mediterranean-style gins and includes cucumber for a refreshing touch.
Recently, the brand partnered with Konstantinos Theodorakopoulos to create a cocktail based on lavender.
It has previously teamed up with bartender?Marcos Chorattides?of Last Word Bar in Cyprus to create a signature cocktail inspired by the brand’s botanicals, and with?Hyacinthe Lesco?t?of The Cambridge Public House to create a drink using Croatian juniper berries.
This summer, Mataroa worked with Greek mixologists Dionusia Sakellariou, Mary Talaiporou and Agapi Petropoulou?on a list of cocktails.
Mataroa Gin is distilled and bottled in Greece.
