Founded by Rina, Mannya Bar Services was born from more than a decade of experience within the hospitality and cocktail industry, combined with a deep connection to nature and craftsmanship rooted in her upbringing in Peja, Kosovo. Inspired by the Rugova Mountains and the botanicals native to the region, Rina developed a unique approach to mixology centered around handcrafted syrups, bitters, cordials, and tinctures inspired by rare herbs, trees, and natural ingredients.

After relocating to New York City in 2014, Rina began working in the hospitality sector as a bartender, where she developed a strong passion for cocktail culture and mixology. In 2018, she expanded her experience in Miami, working across several of South Beach’s leading restaurants and cocktail destinations before returning to New York to consult bars and restaurants on cocktail menu development, beverage concepts, and bar construction projects, while also spending summers working throughout the Hamptons hospitality scene.

Although the Mannya concept was first developed in 2021, the brand officially launched in Spring 2023 alongside Rina’s brother Gino and mixologists Keitha Clarkson and James Dickerson, following years of refinement and development.
Today, Mannya Bar Services specializes in bespoke bar services, personalized cocktail programs, flair bartending, mixology classes, hospitality consulting, private tastings, and luxury beverage experiences tailored for private clients, restaurants, luxury brands, and curated events.

As part of this partnership, Mannya Bar Services will collaborate with The Luxury Network USA on upcoming The Inner Circle events taking place throughout New York City and the Hamptons during the summer season, delivering exclusive cocktail concepts and elevated hospitality experiences for members, partners, and invited guests.
