In this episode of The Middle East Drinks Podcast, Sophie Cookson sat down with two industry trailblazers reshaping the cocktail and bar scene in Dubai and beyond.

Jimmy Barrat, a globally renowned mixologist and mentor, joins Laura Marnich, the visionary co-founder of Beeleaf Bar Consultancy, to discuss their remarkable journeys and the transformative impact they’ve had on the UAE’s hospitality landscape.
