Rituals for Present Time
For centuries, cultures have embraced sacred drinking rituals to make sense of things: to slow life down, help navigate it better, discover what’s truly worthwhile.
Be it the South Korean custom of never pouring your own soju, or a swiftly served aperitif in Italy, alongside plump olives and fresh bread, each custom uses beverages like a punctuation mark: a comma or period organizing life’s noise, leading us to focus on the present moment.
