Charles Flamminio is a bartender, educator, and researcher in the field of contemporary mixology, with a strong focus on the relationship between aromas, botanicals, and sensory perception. Throughout his career he has developed an experimental approach to drink creation, exploring natural ingredients, infusions, and extraction techniques designed to enhance the aromatic profile of raw materials.

His research particularly focuses on the use of tea and aromatic botanicals in mixology, an area in which he has organized tastings, workshops, and masterclasses aimed at discovering new combinations between tea, spirits, and botanical ingredients. Through this work, Flamminio investigates the connection between taste, smell, and sensory experience, bringing the world of mixology closer to that of perfumery.

Over the years he has taken part in events and festivals dedicated to beverage culture and tasting experiences, promoting a vision of mixology as a multisensory and aromatic exploration that blends creativity, craftsmanship, and ingredient knowledge.

At Snouf – Fragrance Niche Event, Charles Flamminio will share his perspective on the dialogue between mixology, botanicals, and perfume culture, exploring how the study of aromas and raw materials can create new connections between the worlds of taste and fragrance.
