About Augusto Lino

"Lino," as his friends and loyal customers call him, is originally from Brazil and came to New York City several years ago before settling in the Boston area as bar manager at UpStairs on the Square. Bringing back the classics and adding a twist to them as well is Lino's style. He does a great job of showing us how to make quality drinks the correct way and sharing some cocktail lore while he's at it. And look how snazzy he looks in his jacket and tie!
