Winner of the India finals of the international bartending competition, World Class 2018, Gaurav Dhyani tells DI that he loves to travel to explore the local flavours of a place and infuse them in his liquid creations.
The World Class competitions are an international benchmark of bartending standards. What does winning its India finals mean to you?
This was the fifth year that I was competing in the World Class and I finally cracked it this time and made it to the global finals. The tasks that are set forth for bartenders at the competition are different every year, so you get to learn something new each time. It’s not so much a competition as it is an education programme to learn new trends and skills from around the world and inculcate all those in what you’re creating.
Tell us a little about yourself and your background.
