Imbibe Live 2012 – drinks in a nutshell

Source: imbibe.com

The recent Imbibe Live took the on-trade on yet another two-day sensory trip through what’s trendy in the drinks business.

Comfortably nested under the glass roof of Kensington Olympia, a spectacular venue with a lot of natural light and space big enough to fit a commercial jet plane. Instead of a plane, though, it featured a line-up of all imaginable drinks, alcoholic and non-alcoholic, and bar snacks distributed in a maze of custom designed more or less glamorous stands: vintage and modern, full of mirrors and decorative artefacts, and in different sizes and colours.

First anniversary

I can hardly believe it that a whole year has gone by since my first shy post.

It’s been an utterly motivating experience and a gateway to a new path of life.

There are many accounts still slowly finding their way to this blog and even more to come in the next weeks and months.

Thanks to all of you, from nearly 30 different countries (I can hardly believe that either) who have followed, read, commented, tweeted, retweeted, liked, shared and so on. It’s been a great boost of energy.

All the very best and do stick around for more.
