Benji (whose actual name is Fabio), is a friend, and a tremendous host even among his fellow Italian bartenders, which is really saying something.
After studing philosophy and being a professional soccer player (!), Benji went into bartending and is now a partner in the Farmily hospitality group that includes 1930 Bar, MAG Cafe and Tripstillery, all in Milan, as well as Bitter Fusetti, a bittersweet Turin-style bitter which has fast become a cult favorite throughout Italy, and the group makes gins, amaros and other products, too.
Benji was in NY to do two guest shifts, at Caffe Dante and Sueno, on behalf of the excellent Amaretto Adriatico, so we sat down in the CitizenM Bowery hotel to talk amaretto, Fusetti, bartending, taste, the state of play in Italy and a lot more.
Enjoy!

(PR friends: we’re only interested in having your client on if they can talk for a couple of hours about OTHER things than their prepared speaking points or their new thing, whatever that is, for a few hours.
They need to be able to hang.
Oh, plus we don't edit, and we won’t supply prepared or sample questions, or listener or “reach” stats, either.)
