Edinburgh Bar Show 2025
2025 marked the second year of the Edinburgh Bar Show and the Campari Academy UK team arrived in full force!
With our good friends Bart & Valentino from Crossroads Consultancy, they delivered an incredibly in-depth session on going Beyond Bubbles, where friends old & new became more acquainted with science of carbonation and its impact on how we enjoy cocktails.
From all of us at Campari Academy UK, thank you to everyone that joined in the fun!
