Just ahead of an incredibly busy but rewarding and exciting trade and consumer gathering of thousands of people, London Cocktail Week co-founders Hannah Sharman-Cox and Siobhan Payne drop by the Bar Hacks podcast.

Unlike most of our guests, Hannah and Siobhan aren't bartenders or bar operators. However, they're every bit as passionate about hospitality and the bar world as the people who have dedicated their professional lives to serving others. On this episode, this dynamic duo discuss the ins and outs of London Cocktail Week, including several innovative initiatives and activations. For example, lucky trade applicants will have the opportunity to spend time with the Connaught Bar team to see how they prepare for service.

Hannah and Siobhan also share the details of what should prove to be an global industry game changer: the Pinnacle Guide. Think the Michelin Guide for bars, though the recognition system will approach awarding venues across the world differently. Oh, and there's also the pair's brand consultancy, because they're not busy enough. Cheers!
