After fifteen years behind the bar, Monty has turned mixing into a kind of meditation. You’ll find him now at The Library Bar, where each pour feels like a quiet ritual. He speaks of creativity the way others speak of faith — as something you meet halfway, through presence, patience, and collaboration. Through classics and a bit of innovation, he reinvents himself and his style. While teaching the recipe for his Poetry vodka Golden Haiku, he shares the Japanese ideas that shape his craft — harmony, impermanence, and the beauty of what can never be repeated twice.
