Growth & Authenticity: Stay True, Listen, and Take the Risk

from Bar Hacks · host David Klemt & Doug Radkey

ALB Vodka has been experiencing significant growth and forming key partnerships through a few powerful tactics: they listen to operators, chefs, bartenders and partners, and they innovate while remaining authentic and true to themselves.That is, in part, what got Bar Hacks host David Klemt interested in speaking with Brian Grimsley of ALB Vodka. However, there's more to the brand's story, and it's something that caught David's attention immediately. It turns that out many notable Italian restaurants throughout NYC use ALB Vodka to make their vodka sauces.During this chat, Brian and Chef Anthony tell the ALB story, share what authenticity means to them, discuss institution status, and even dive into vodka sauce specifically and red sauce in general. This is a fun one! Cheers!Notes⁠ALB Vodka IG⁠⁠ALB Website website⁠Chef Anthony IGEmilio's Ballato IGVitolo IGVitolo website⁠KRG Nightlife IG⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠KRG Nightlife website
