World's Greatest Hotel Bartenders

Giuliano Morandin
London
Hotel: The Dorchester
Bar: The Dorchester Bar Gloriously old school, the dapper and charming Morandin has been a
Dorchester fixture for more than 30 years—but still nabs accolades; he
was recently named Bar Manager of the Year at the Class Awards (the
Oscars for cocktail masters). He was also chosen for a Tanqueray ad
campaign featuring the world’s 10 Best Bartenders, hotel-based or
otherwise. Morandin was a crucial partner overseeing the bar’s recent
revamp (in concert with designer Thierry Despont), including the
sinewy, showstopping long bar. Signature Cocktail: The Martinez Shake together and strain into a martini glass. Squeeze an orange twist and drop into drink.
