Her expertise spans every category of spirits, and she’s constantly tasting, evaluating, and experimenting with new expressions to ensure the menu remains dynamic and inventive. While her specialty lies in tropical-inspired cocktails, Fatima’s deep knowledge of spirits makes her an invaluable creative leader behind the bar. Whether she’s fine-tuning a house rum blend or crafting seasonal drink specials, Fatima blends precision, passion, and playfulness into every pour.
