Beau du Bois | Source | Vice President of Bar and Spirits at Puesto

Beau du Bois, Vice President of Bar and Spirits at San Diego's Puesto, Roma Norte and Marisi, has been involved with the California cocktail scene since 2007 working at some of the most infamous and cutting-edge bars and restaurants. Beau was named one of Zagat’s 30 under 30 in LA, one of America’s Top 25 bartenders by The Daily Meal, and Eater L.A.’s Bartender of the Year 2014. In 2018, Chef Chris Kostow’s Three Michelin-starred The Restaurant at Meadowood called Beau to ask if he’d consider moving from Los Angeles to Napa. Once there, Beau successfully elevated one of the very few cocktail programs that exist on the Three Michelin Star level. In 2019, Chef Kostow and Beau traveled to Shenzhen to open another fine dining location on top of the Shangri-La Hotel in the Futian District called, Ensue. Shortly after Ensue’s grand opening, Beau was contacted by the Adler brothers about joining the team at their growing restaurant group. Since becoming the Vice President of Bar & Spirits at Puesto, and then subsequently leading the opening bar team at Marisi and Roma Norte, Beau has raised the bar for San Diego's cocktail culture with his commitment to additive-free agave spirits and technique-driven menus.
