Sydney Bar Week 2014
Take your recreational drinking pro, with a 'week' of masterclasses, tastings and themed parties.
Overview
Have you ever heard two words that fit so neatly together? Bar. Week. A wonderful celebration of cocktails and small bars — two arenas that Sydney rather excels in these days. From September 27-30 (we are fully aware that this does not constitute a week — why fight it?), 2014 will be the third year that Sydney Bar Week will open its doors to the public, giving us the opportunity to meander over to the other side of the bar counter and learn the tricks of the trade from the best in the business.
Specifically, there's The Barbershop's Made in Britain seminar, which will chart the journey of gin cocktails in Britain — from the bathtub gin era until now, the much-more-pleasant bottled gin era. What's more, you can get 50 percent off of a haircut while you're there.
Another internationally renowned beverage will be explored in the Mezcal Masterclass at Bondi Beach's Mr Moustache. Master bartender Mike Tomasic will shed some light on the unique and often underrated mezcal, the beverage that has always stood in the shadow of another agave based spirit, tequila.
