Originally a civil engineer, Federico discovered his true passion for mixology and bartending after finding his desk job unfulfilling. Under the mentorship of esteemed mixologists Luca Cinalli and Gabriele Manfredi, Federico honed his skills and went on to become the Director of Bars for EDITION Hotels. His work in luxury hotels and venues listed in \u201c50 Best Bars\u201d and Michelin Starred Restaurants has earned him a distinguished reputation. Known for his unique cocktails and ability to design remarkable bar experiences, Federico\u2019s focus on connecting with people through his craft has set him apart in the industry.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cMixology is the art of creating experiences through flavours. Each cocktail tells a story, and we aim to ensure every sip of JA Manafaru\u2019s guests is unforgettable with our upcoming creations soon to grace the resort\u2019s menus,\u201d shared Federico Penzo, who is eager to collaborate with JA Manafaru\u2019s beverage team.<\/p>\n<p>This exciting collaboration underscores JA Manafaru\u2019s commitment to providing exceptional and innovative food and beverage experiences. Federico will showcase his passion for creating unique, sustainable cocktails by incorporating the popular home-brewed \u201cKombucha\u201d \u2013 a fermented tea rich in probiotics \u2013 and utilising ingredients grown in the resort\u2019s own garden. Guests can look forward to a vibrant display of fresh, organic herbs, fruit, and locally sourced ingredients, all contributing to visually stunning and flavourful concoctions.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cFederico excels in crafting wellness-focused cocktails using homemade, locally sourced ingredients prepared from scratch. He eagerly anticipates collaborating with guests and our team in our gardens to cultivate distinctive ingredients. This effort aligns with our sustainability goals, minimising air miles from supply shipments, sourcing ingredients directly from the island, and minimising sugars and artificial additives,\u201d says Mark Stanton, Director of Food &amp; Beverage at JA Manafaru. \u201cHis visit is a testament to our ongoing dedication to elevating our guests\u2019 experiences and offering them something truly special. We are confident that Federico\u2019s creativity and focus on sustainability will inspire both our guests and our team.\u201d<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_22492\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-22492\" style=\"width: 779px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\" wp-image-22492\" src=\"http:\/\/maldives-paradise.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/ja-manafaru-beach-300x231.jpg\" alt=\"JA Manafaru\" width=\"779\" height=\"600\" srcset=\"https:\/\/maldives-paradise.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/ja-manafaru-beach-300x231.jpg 300w, https:\/\/maldives-paradise.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/ja-manafaru-beach-1024x788.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/maldives-paradise.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/ja-manafaru-beach-768x591.jpg 768w, https:\/\/maldives-paradise.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/ja-manafaru-beach-16x12.jpg 16w, https:\/\/maldives-paradise.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/ja-manafaru-beach-500x385.jpg 500w, https:\/\/maldives-paradise.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/ja-manafaru-beach-800x616.jpg 800w, https:\/\/maldives-paradise.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/ja-manafaru-beach.jpg 1169w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 779px) 100vw, 779px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-22492\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">JA Manafaru<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>During his visit, Federico will also host interactive sessions, providing engaging learning opportunities for guests.
