Nick, an avid Boston sports fan was born in Massachusetts where he first got his feet wet in the bar cocktail scene and began his lifelong preoccupation with rum. In search of the warmer weather, he made his way to south to Tennessee for the whiskey, southern culture and cuisine. His journey then led him to Southwest Florida for the sun and amazing beaches. Nick is a bartender of the classic style and enjoys working each night behind the bar serving his guests and creating new drinks as well as contemporary interpretations of vintage cocktails.

Born and raised in Tampa, Justen fell in love with the industry the moment he stepped into a bar back role in 2018. Now, his journey has brought him to Southwest Florida working for Chartreuse, where he’s cultivating cocktails and working hard to bring guests a fantastic imbibing experience. He loves to work with rum, gin, and mezcal. When he isn’t at the bar, he spends his free time with his loving girlfriend and two cats, Toothless and Westley, or in front of his gaming pc.
Ethan Howe

Although new to the world of the bar, he’s getting a crash course on how to make fresh, custom ingredients, and turn them into amazing cocktails.

Brijesh Soni
Currently a host/barback with aspirations of becoming a bartender. Born in Chicago, grew
up in Georgia, and moved to Florida in 2022. Ever since I was young, I’ve been
passionate about the art of craft cocktails, completely mesmerized by the
harmony of flavors that come together in each creation. Driven and always on
the move, I thrive on staying busy and constantly seeking new challenges to
expand my skill set. As an avid explorer, I love uncovering new places and
flavors, always striving to find the best of what life has to offer. With a
wonderstruck heart and an open mind, I’m dedicated to crafting unforgettable
moments.
Hannah Rose Thompson
As a lifelong resident of Bonita Springs, Hannah has dabbled in every front of house position before discovering her love for bartending. When she’s not concocting delicious drinks, you can catch her zipping around on her Carver, hunting for hidden gems at thrift stores, or cracking jokes to keep her friends entertained. Hannah is all about spreading joy, sharing laughs, and her puns are always intended. She’s eager to grow and she’s thrilled to be doing so with Chartreuse. 🫰
