Some encounters go far beyond the bar.
Beyond cocktails, rankings, photos, and even the industry itself. They become something much bigger, connections that stay with you long after the last drink is served and the music fades away.
Being part of Exímia’s 2-year anniversary was one of those moments I know I’ll carry with me for a very long time.
@marciojs , thank you for the invitation, for your generosity, and for the genuine and human way you move through everything around you.
More than creating an extraordinary bar, you create belonging. You create experiences that make people truly feel something.
In an industry where everything seems to move so fast, finding people who still lead with care, sensitivity, attention, and real passion is rare. And maybe that’s exactly why you became one of my biggest inspirations, both inside and outside the bar.
And I think there’s something even more special about gatherings like this: the exchange.
Being able to spend these days alongside professionals from all over the world, sharing stories, cultures, ideas, experiences, and different ways of seeing hospitality and cocktails, is something truly powerful.
And for the history of Brazilian cocktail culture, this has enormous meaning. Because it shows the world the creative, cultural, and human strength that exists here. Every conversation, every service, every connection created during these days helps strengthen our scene and brings Brazil even closer to the center of the global cocktail conversation.
Thank you as well to
@nicfullen e
@gabfullen , the entire Exímia team, and everyone involved in these unforgettable days.
The care, the attention to every detail, and the energy you created made everything feel even more meaningful.
Some places impress you.
Some people inspire you.
But very few make you feel truly connected.
Exímia did all three. 🤍
See you soon 🤍
