TAOS Series III

Series III is the Paradiso Edition, created to explore a more advanced and considered approach to modern bartending. The course focuses on creativity, sustainable cocktail design, storytelling, expert techniques and the process of developing original liquid ideas from concept through to final execution. Learners discover how inspiration can be shaped into drinks with a clear identity, stronger purpose and a deeper connection between flavour, presentation and guest experience. The course also explores how thoughtful ingredient choices, responsible methods and creative direction can influence both individual cocktails and wider menu development. Rather than simply teaching recipes, Series III reveals the thinking behind more original and meaningful drinks. It helps bartenders strengthen their creative judgement, refine their technical approach and develop ideas that feel distinctive, relevant and professionally considered.

Series III is taught by Giacomo Giannotti, founder of Paradiso and one of the most influential figures in modern cocktail culture. Throughout the course, Giacomo shares the creative thinking, sustainable methods and professional techniques behind Paradiso’s distinctive approach. Learners gain insight into how concepts are developed, how stories are translated into drinks and how flavour, presentation and guest experience can be brought together with greater purpose.

Series III can be useful for ambitious beginners, but it is primarily designed for bartenders who already understand the foundations of technique, flavour and cocktail construction. The course explores advanced creativity, sustainable design, storytelling and conceptual development, so learners will benefit from having some practical experience first. Beginners may prefer to start with Series I before progressing to the more advanced thinking and methods introduced in Series III.

Series III develops advanced skills in creative cocktail design, sustainability, storytelling and concept development. You will learn how to build original liquid ideas, connect flavour with presentation and create drinks with a clear identity and purpose. The course also strengthens your understanding of expert technique, responsible ingredient use, menu thinking and guest experience. By the end, you will be better equipped to turn inspiration into thoughtful cocktails, stronger concepts and more distinctive creative work.

Series III is the right choice if you want to focus specifically on advanced creativity, sustainable cocktail design, storytelling and the Paradiso approach to developing original drinks. The All-Inclusive Bundle is better suited to learners who want the complete TAOS pathway, with access to Series I through V as one connected programme. It provides a broader education across technique, flavour, service, creativity and professional development.
