Juan Valls runs two cocktail bars: El Niño and Sinners Club. He's also in charge of Spain's leading bar show, FIBAR.
After Juan left university and pursued job opportunities, he discovered early on he was driven to work for himself. At 23 years old, Juan and his partners opened their first bar. Just four years later, he grew his portfolio into two bars, a restaurant and a catering company.
Juan later bought out his partners when the business faced difficult challenges. The crisis inspired him to explore an exciting new venture. And with no previous experience, Juan took up bartending in hopes of improving his business. A new found passion for cocktails went hand in hand with his business's success.
This led to the opening of El Niño Perdido in 2011 bringing fresh concepts to the Spanish city of Valladolid. The bar offers experimental serves, whilst Sinners Club, an old jazz bar and Juan's latest acquisition, offers classic cocktails.
Not only is Juan a striving entrepreneur, he champions education in the bar industry. Today, he's considered by many to be one of Spain's most creative bartenders and an influencer of the Spanish bar scene.
