Johnny Roberts, Managing Director Berry Bros. & Rudd

“Developing The Pioneers with Ryan and Mr Lyan Studio was a true collaboration.

From cask selection through to content development, they brought creativity, added value and were great to work with.”

Leonid Shutov, Founder BobBob Ricard

“We were very excited to see Ryan among our early regulars at Bébé Bob, so when our thoughts turned to bespoke cocktails we could not think of anyone better than Mr Lyan Studio to approach for collaboration.

It has been incredibly exciting working with the world’s leading authority on cocktails and we can’t wait to share the results with customers old and new.”

Max Tamagna, Channel Sales & Advocacy, Moët Hennessy

“The new approach to trade advocacy designed by Mr Lyan Studio has led to a big increase in engagement with our program.

By breaking down and educating on aspects such as the grape varietals, using tools such as the tinctures and cocktail serves, it allows them understand Moet & Chandon and build their knowledge of the Champagne, whilst finding their own preference for champagne cocktails”

Jason Moore, Managing Director, Westland Distillery

“It’s unique to find a partner who is truly passionate about your brand, but also has the perfect combination of experience and capabilities to bring your project to life. Working with Mr Lyan Studio was a top-notch experience from start to finish. They became a true extension of our team, immersing themselves in our brand while bringing fresh ideas to the table to help us craft a compelling experience to bring Westland to a new generation of bartenders.”

John Glaser, Founder, Compass Box

“The maddest minds in the business. They create experiences, leaving indelible imprints on the palates and memories of those fortunate enough to partake of their work.”
