About Amadeus Segura

Amadeus Segura is a dedicated bartender with three years of bartending experience and eight years in the service industry, driven by a deep passion for the cultural and historical significance of local and regional ingredients—an interest inspired early on by his father, an executive chef. His approach to hospitality is rooted in genuine connection, whether through sharing fascinating facts, rich histories, or everyday conversation with guests. For the past three years, he has worked for a Japanese-owned company in San Diego focused on promoting authentic Japanese culture, cuisine, and beverages. Under the mentorship of Ayaka Ito, a master sake sommelier and brewer, Amadeus has gained profound insight into Japanese food, drink, and hospitality, an experience that has deeply influenced both his personal philosophy and professional path. He remains committed to continual learning and growth, striving to perfect his craft while embracing the humility and curiosity that are central to the Japanese cultural values that inspire him.
