It's a sweltering May afternoon, and Aneesh Bhasin is already at Lima when Ami Shroff arrives. Bhasin is the co-founder of Hipcask, a wine-focused smartphone app, and Shroff is among India's first female flair bartenders. Though actively involved in the country's beverage industry, the duo has never met before.
