Mélanie Masarin
Mélanie Masarin is the founder of Ghia, a non-alcoholic aperitif designed to change the way we think about drinking and socializing. Ghia was inspired by the summers enjoyed with her family in the South of France near the Mediterranean – moments spent entertaining friends, cooking together, and having conversations that lasted until dawn. Ghia is meant to create an aperitivo hour that, like those childhood memories, invites everyone to the table and transports you to a place of simple pleasures and connection without numbing the night. Melanie is the recipient of a Forbes 30 Under 30 award (2018; e-comm & retail) and Ghia was named Fast Company’s top 10 most innovative consumer goods companies of 2022, won Best New Product in the BevNET Best of 2022 Awards, is a Gold Medal Winner in the L.A. Spirits Awards Non-Alcoholic Category, and remains the first and only non-alcoholic brand in history to win Esquire’s “Drink of the Year” award.
