Bartenders get ready to beat world’s best
island2island will be hosting the bi-annual Angostura Global Cocktail Challenge -
Australian Final on November 8 and the contestants are getting ready to crush,
shake and stir their way to the World Championships.
The final five contestants will compete for the winners’ title on November 8 while
cruising on-board ‘The Pontoon’, Sydney’s floating glass ballroom.
The winner of the Australian competition will be given $2000 in cash and an all
expenses paid trip to Trinidad to compete in the third Angostura Global Cocktail
Challenge against nine other nations. However, it will be tough to get there as the
2007 World Champion, Marco Nunes of Queensland, will be amongst the 20
finalists.
Allan Shearer, CEO of Angostura distributor for Australia, island2island says he looks
forward to seeing the nation’s best bartenders fight for the winner’s title.
“island2island is proud to be holding an event that supports what is no longer just a
job, but an art form,” Allan says.
