Igor VaulinCommunity profile

Igor's introduction to bar culture began in Siberia, where he first worked behind the bar at a trendy chain of establishments in the 2010s, followed by stints at People's and Black Milk. However, his true passion for mixology, unconventional combinations, and especially fermentation, ignited after moving to St. Petersburg in 2014 and working at the renowned "22.13" bar on Konushyennaya Square. Subsequently, Igor joined the Sчастье team, where he developed his first signature cocktail menu within just six months. He participated in the launch of the brand's restaurants in Moscow, St. Petersburg, and Kazan, and currently continues to nurture and develop the bar team alongside Kristina Kolchina. In the new Michèle project, Igor is responsible for the visionary approach to mixology.
