Speaking low with Shingo Gokan

Well-travelled Tokyo-born bartender Shingo Gokan, of Angel’s Share and Speak Low fame, was recently in town for a few guest shifts at various local bespoke cocktail bars such as D.Bespoke and 28 Hong Kong Street.

The winner of the second edition of the Bacardi Global Legacy Cocktail Competition in 2012 – with a cocktail called Speak Low influenced by the Japanese tea ceremony that inspired his Shanghai bar of the same name – also took some time to share his experience with the five Singapore finalists competing to see who will represent Singapore in the global finals of Bacardi Legacy Cocktail Competition 2016, as well as show them and other Singapore-based bartenders some tending techniques he’s picked up in his travels.
