 Do You know Lou? Lou Bernard is a self-taught mixology luminary in the hospitality industry. Over 14 years, he has showcased his rich Latin American heritage through his innovative cocktails. Born in Venezuela and influenced by his Venezuelan and Bolivian roots, Lou moved to Virginia at 16. In 2017, he dedicated himself full-time to mixology, making his mark at Washington D.C.'s top bars, including The Blaguard and Roy Boys. As the beverage director for Casa Kantuta, the first Bolivian cocktail bar in the U.S., he highlighted Bolivia’s signature spirit, singani. Currently, he leads the cocktail program at MITA, a plant-based Latin American restaurant, and runs Noches del Caribe, a pop-up celebrating Afro-Latinx culture. Lou’s work emphasizes authenticity and cultural appreciation, inspiring others to embrace their uniqueness. Lou has such a great story and we here at TheListAreYouOnIt.com are so excited to share it with you here:Celebrating Authenticity: The Rise of Latin American Spirits in Craft CocktailsAs someone who proudly hails from Venezuela and Bolivia, I find deep joy and fulfillment in sharing the rich heritage of Latin American spirits. It is important to me to remain true to who I am in everything I do and to the industry I love. Bringing my authentic self to my work not only sets me apart but also offers a valuable opportunity for the community to learn and appreciate cultures beyond their own.When I first delved into the world of Latin American spirits, I was captivated by their rich histories, unique production processes, and the vibrant cultures from which they originate. Today, these spirits—tequila, mezcal, pisco, singani and many others—are taking the spotlight on the global stage, and it’s easy to see why. The allure of these spirits lies in their authenticity and the stories they tell with each sip.Take tequila, for instance. Produced exclusively in the region surrounding Tequila, Jalisco, this spirit is crafted from the blue agave plant. The process begins with harvesting the agave, followed by cooking the piñas (the heart of the agave plant) to convert the starches into sugars. The cooked piñas are then crushed to extract the juice, which is fermented and distilled. The result is a spirit that can be enjoyed in various forms—from the unaged, clear silver tequila to the aged and complex añejo.Mezcal, often considered tequila’s smokier cousin, is another gem. Its production process is more rustic and artisanal. Made from different varieties of agave, mezcal’s defining characteristic comes from the cooking process, where the piñas are roasted in underground pits lined with hot rocks. This imparts a distinct smoky flavor that sets it apart. Each mezcal carries the unique terroir of the region it’s produced in, making every bottle a reflection of its origin.Pisco, a grape brandy from Peru and Chile, showcases the diversity of Latin American spirits. Made from fermented grape juice and distilled to proof without aging, pisco captures the essence of the grape varietals used. Whether it’s the aromatic and floral notes of a Peruvian pisco or the crisp and clean flavors of a Chilean one, pisco offers a delightful complexity that’s perfect for cocktails or sipping neat.Singani, often hailed as Bolivia's national spirit, is a unique and aromatic brandy distilled from white Muscat of Alexandria grapes grown at high altitudes in the Andes. This distinct environment, with its cool temperatures and intense sunlight, imparts exceptional floral and fruity characteristics to the spirit. Singani's history dates back to the 16th century, when Spanish settlers first introduced grape cultivation to the region. Today, it is cherished for its smooth, refined flavor and versatility in cocktails, making it a beloved symbol of Bolivian culture and a rising star in the world of artisanal spirits.Pairing these spirits with Latin American cuisine elevates the dining experience to new heights. The robust flavors of tequila, for instance, complement the smoky and spicy notes of tacos al pastor, while a smooth, aged tequila can enhance the richness of a mole sauce. Mezcal’s smokiness pairs beautifully with the charred flavors of grilled meats and the earthiness of arepas, creating a harmonious balance.Pisco’s versatility shines with ceviche. The bright acidity and fresh flavors of a pisco sour can cut through the richness of the fish, enhancing the dish’s citrusy and herbal notes. Meanwhile, singani complements spicy dishes like Bolivian salteñas or ceviche, where its smooth, refined profile balances and accentuates the bold, savory ingredients.I am deeply grateful and honored to highlight Latin culture in craft cocktails, and to also shine a light on Afro-Latino and indigenous cultures that are often overlooked. By sharing these stories and flavors, I hope to inspire others to celebrate what makes them special and to expose guests to new and exciting experiences that highlight their uniqueness. Cheers to the vibrant world of Latin American spirits, and to the beauty of remaining true to oneself in all that we do.

Jordi Paronella, a native of Barcelona, grew up in a family with a deep passion for wine. After completing his studies in Hospitality and Restaurant Management, he pursued his interest in wine at the Escuela de Enologia d’Espielles. His education paved the way for a distinguished career as a sommelier in some of the most celebrated Michelin-starred restaurants around Barcelona, including Restaurant Abac, Restaurant Moo, and the iconic Cal Xim. In 2013, Jordi made the move to the U.S., taking on the role of Lead Sommelier for José Andrés’ Spanish concepts. By 2020, he had advanced to Wine Director for the entire José Andrés Group. While he remains deeply connected to the wines of his homeland, he is equally passionate about wines from around the world that embody a strong sense of place and terroir — like the wines coming out of Virginia. Jordi is adamant that Virginia wines are worthy of a world-class designation. Of course, we wanted to know more — trust us, you do too. Virginia Wine: A World-Class Destination, Not Just an Emerging Region A Q&A with Jordi Paronella, Wine Director of José Andrés GroupVirginia is often referred to as an emerging wine region. Do you agree with that assessment, or would you say it’s more established?JP: Virginia is absolutely NOT an "upcoming" wine region—it’s already an established one! The quality and diversity of wines being produced here are phenomenal, and it's time we give Virginia the credit it deserves as a world-class wine destination. Just look at RdV Vineyards—the recent acquisition by Château Montrose, one of Bordeaux’s premier estates, speaks volumes. This isn't just recognition from a top global wine player; it's proof that Virginia has firmly arrived on the world wine stage. Can you give us some examples of standout Virginia wineries that are already creating world-class wines?JP: Absolutely! One of the premier examples is Crimson Lane Vineyards. Their winemaker, Dominique Fioresi, is crafting wines that rival the best in the world. His attention to detail, passion for the land, and commitment to excellence are evident in every bottle. The experience at Crimson Lane is not just about tasting world-class wines, though. It’s the breathtaking landscape, the intimate, personalized tasting experiences, and the feeling of being part of something exceptional. Whether you’re walking through their stunning vineyards or enjoying a private tasting, you’ll quickly realize that Crimson Lane is a premier destination for anyone serious about discovering Virginia’s finest wines. Another gem is Linden Vineyards. Jim Law has been pioneering exceptional wines in Virginia for decades, and his dedication to terroir-driven winemaking is unparalleled. At The Bazaar by José Andrés, we aim to showcase the potential of aging with old vintages of Linden wines and Lost Mountain wines, demonstrating their remarkable evolution over time.Beyond these, there are other great wineries making waves in the region. Early Mountain, Barboursville, and Ankida Ridge are all doing exceptional work, each contributing to Virginia’s reputation as a world-class wine region. Whether it's Early Mountain’s dedication to elevating the Virginia wine scene, Barboursville’s classic Italian influence, or Ankida Ridge’s impressive cool-climate wines, the future of Virginia wine is incredibly bright. How do you see Virginia wine fitting into the larger landscape of American wine regions?JP: Virginia is becoming a true force in the American wine landscape. While places like Napa and Oregon have dominated the conversation, Virginia is now being recognized for its own unique terroir and style. The diversity of climate and soils here allows for the production of an array of different wine styles, from elegant reds to expressive whites. What I love most is how Virginia wines often combine Old World finesse with New World innovation. They have character, depth, and a sense of place that is incredibly compelling for wine lovers. For someone visiting Virginia wine country for the first time, what should they expect?JP: Expect to be wowed! Virginia wine country offers a mix of scenic beauty, history, and, of course, incredible wines. The wineries here aren’t just about tasting rooms—they’re about experiences. Whether it’s a tour through the vineyards of the former RdV now Lost Mountain, a tasting flight at Crimson Lane, or a deep dive into the meticulously crafted wines at Linden, visitors will leave with a newfound appreciation for Virginia’s place in the world of wine. And beyond the wine, there’s a rich food culture developing alongside it. It's a perfect destination for wine lovers looking for a new and exciting region to explore. What makes Virginia’s terroir unique, and how does it influence the style of wines produced here?JP: Virginia’s terroir is incredibly diverse, which is one of the region’s greatest strengths. You have everything from the Blue Ridge Mountains to the rolling hills of Piedmont, and that variety in elevation, soil composition, and microclimates allows winemakers to experiment and craft wines with remarkable complexity. The influence of the Atlantic also brings a cooling effect, helping to balance acidity, especially in reds. The result is wines that are vibrant, elegant, and full of character. You can taste the sense of place in every sip, whether it’s a Bordeaux-style blend from RdV or a perfectly balanced Chardonnay from Linden. The terroir here isn’t just unique; it’s a signature that sets Virginia wines apart from the rest. How do you think Virginia wine will continue to grow in the next 5 to 10 years?JP: The momentum is unstoppable! We’re already seeing top winemakers being drawn to the region, new vineyard investments, and an increased focus on sustainability and innovation. As more people discover what Virginia has to offer, both in terms of wine quality and wine tourism, I think the region will continue to expand its influence not just nationally but globally. With winemakers pushing boundaries, we’re going to see even more attention coming Virginia’s way. This is a region that’s not just here to stay—it’s here to lead.
