Where Details Create the Atmosphere

For Fabio, working behind the bar at Strøm is about more than serving drinks — it’s about creating a feeling. From the moment he arrived, he sensed an energy in the room unlike any other place he had worked before. A quiet but vibrant atmosphere where craft and people meet naturally. He pays close attention to the smallest details, from the rhythm of the shake to the final garnish that completes the glass. While preparing his Poetry vodka cocktail, Fabio speaks about the bar as a shared experience — where atmosphere, precision, and care come together to create something guests can feel, even before the first sip.

The cocktail engineer

After fourteen years in Denmark, Sergio has learned to balance two worlds — engineering by training, and cocktail craft by passion. Behind the bar at Strøm, precision comes naturally to him. Measurements matter, structure matters, but so does intuition. Working mostly with the classics, he treats each cocktail like a small system of balance and tension, where every ingredient has its place. While preparing his Poetry vodka cocktail, Sergio speaks about drinks the way an engineer might describe design — elegant when simple, powerful when everything works together just right.

The Spirit in the Glass

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.

The House Within the Machine

From the first days at The House of Machines, Sam has been part of its soul, shaping the atmosphere one pour at a time. His way behind the bar carries the same quiet focus he brings to everything he touches: the details, the timing, the care. A Poetry pour like no other. It’s where tradition meets instinct, and where creativity slips in between — not loud, but unmistakably there.
