From shaking, stirring and serving alongside incredible women in the industry, it’s been a month full of good drinks, good energy ( incl. passion and footwork 😜) and even better conversations.

A big thank you to every woman form EBS who stepped behind the bar and brought her own flavour to the EBS x Nkula guest shifts. 🍸

Here’s to the women behind the bar, the ones making moves, making drinks and making space for the next generation to do the same.

What a month. What a lineup. ❤️

See you soon 😉
