Founded by Dohyung 'Demie' Kim (Altos Bartenders' Bartender 2024), Jisu Park and Noah Kwon, Zest runs zero-waste and hyper-seasonal: contract farming, house beehives, its own sodas and citrus stocks, all in a minimalist room built on the beauty of emptiness. Winner of the Ketel One Sustainable Bar Award 2024.
