Drawing inspiration from Ketel One's 300-year tradition of perfecting craft distilling, Alejandro crafted an audio series focused on excelling in simple, everyday activities.
Instructions for A Handshake.
1. Confirm that the palm of your right hand is not sweaty. Extend your arm at a right angle.
2. Establishing eye contact, open your hand with the thumb pointing up. Add an elegant phrase, such as “enchanté”.
3. When your counterpart reaches out, grab his hand with determination, but be careful not to hurt him. Keep your grip for three counts: one Mississippi, two Mississippi… three Mississippi.
Instructions for How to Applaud.
1. Determine whether the act is worth celebrating. Clapping by yourself in a crowded place is like getting out of a pool and not realizing that your swimsuit is down.
2. Gently arch your palms, and then clap them together. The distance between them should not exceed 8.7 inches.
3. Look around and smile, it will communicate emotion, and will help you know when to stop clapping.
Instructions for How to Put On Loafers.
1. Sit down and select which foot to start with. Slipping on loafers while standing is as dangerous as a surgeon with hiccups.
2. Now, hold the shoe from behind and insert the corresponding foot at an angle not exceeding 45.3 degrees, this will prevent the shoe from rolling under your heel.
3. Still sitting, repeat the procedure with the other foot.
