Our story

We build tools for the modern professional, not just ingredients.

GV & JP was founded in 2020 by Giorgos Vourliotis and Jimmy Patsouras, bringing the expertise of Barphilosophy — active since 2009 — into every bottle.

From behind the bar

Our founders spent years working with venues and bar teams before making a single product. That experience shapes what we make: preserve fresh flavour, cut waste, move faster during service, and deliver the same precise result in every glass.

The result is a portfolio that reads like a working bar — the sour backbone, the fruit, the sweetener, the aromatic finish and the alcohol-free option — with nothing added for show.

Our standards

What we hold to

Practical thinking, honest flavour and reliable service — the principles behind every bottle we make.

01

Real bar problems first

Every product starts from something that slows a bartender down or costs a venue money.

02

Flavour without shortcuts

High fruit content, natural juice and clean profiles instead of flat sweetness.

03

Consistency you can batch

The same result in every bottle, so specs and menus survive a busy night.

04

Support beyond the bottle

Training, menu building and serve guidance for the teams that use our products.

Corporate profile

Our strategy: tools for the modern professional

At GV & JP, we don't just produce ingredients — we create tools for the modern professional. We were founded in 2020 by Giorgos Vourliotis and Jimmy Patsouras with one clear vision: to cover the real, everyday needs behind the bar.

Signed "From Bartenders - To Bartenders" and backed by Barphilosophy expertise since 2009, we invest in top-quality raw materials and practical solutions that maximise the performance of your business. Today we hold a leading global position in flavour range in the syrup and lime categories — and we keep innovating across the whole bar portfolio.
