Paul Gabie witnessed the cocktail revolution first hand in New York in the early 2000s when he was a young, “overworked” attorney enjoying nights out at places like Milk & Honey.
Later, when business took him and co-founder Spencer Forhart to Singapore, they noticed a distinct lack of craft cocktail bars. So they decided to start their own.
That led to the launch of a spirits distribution arm, Proof & Company, that has since helped facilitate the cocktail renaissance taking hold in Asia.
