Cocktail Connoisseur
Cocktail Connoisseur is enlisting YOU to judge the best bespoke cocktails from across the country.
Overview
Cocktail Connoisseur hosted at the Loft is set to mix things up (no pun intended) with the final shakedown taking place on 1 November. The competition, aimed at bringing together expert mixologists and bona fide cocktail aficionados, is at grand final stage after grueling prelims around the country.
The great thing about this comp? They've enlisted your help to judge signature creations from some of Australia's finest up and coming. Apparently, it's all about sharing the love at Cocktail Connoisseur. And hey, we're not complaining. Suntory Australia is inviting members of the public to rate bespoke cocktail creations whilst enjoying freebie cocktails and canapés. What's not to love?
To get to this point, 550 entrants across Australia participated in initial rounds, which involved a series of blind tasting by judges according to aesthetic, taste and aroma of each entrant's signature cocktail. The result? A total of five entrants from each state, which were then whittled down to five overall champs.
It is these five champs we're going to see in action on 1 November, and if you're anything like us you'll be doing the ring around to ensure it's a cracker of a night.
