MONIN has officially introduced its premium Paragon range to India during the much-anticipated India Bartender Week (IBW) 2025, held at Le Meridien, Gurugram, on February 26-27. This exclusive event, a part of Worldwide Bartender Week, provided an ideal setting to showcase the new range, which includes White Penja Pepper from Cameroon and Timur Berry from Nepal - two rare botanical ingredients developed in collaboration with renowned mixologist Alex Kratena.
Led by industry veterans like Vikram Achanta, Minakshi Singh, and Yangdup Lama, IBW serves as a hub for bartenders, beverage professionals, and thought leaders to exchange ideas and explore innovations in the craft of mixology.
MONIN’s Paragon range brings a fresh perspective to the world of cocktails. The White Penja Pepper offers a unique mentholated aroma, while the Timur Berry introduces a citrusy, peppery kick, giving bartenders new tools to elevate their creations.
“We are thrilled to introduce Paragon at India Bartender Week 2025, where innovation takes center stage,” said Germain Araud, Managing Director at MONIN India. “This launch allows bartenders to experiment with bold, high-quality botanicals that enhance cocktail flavors like never before.”
MONIN’s participation in IBW 2025 aligns with its mission to support and inspire the hospitality industry, both in India and globally.
