Best Mixologist Award

CALLING ALL MIXOLOGISTS… THE BMAS ARE ON THE SEARCH FOR EXCEPTIONAL MIXOLOGISTS, WHO ARE MASTERS OF THEIR CRAFT AND GO ABOVE AND BEYOND THE CALL OF DUTY TO PROVIDE A MEMORABLE EXPERIENCE FOR THEIR GUESTS.

Abar would be nothing without a great bartender or bartending team – they set the tone for the establishment, and are undoubtedly the key player in whether your venue’s serves are a success amongst customers.

A good bartender is defined by more than their ability to create a wonderful serve: it is their exceptional customer service, passion for the craft and extensive knowledge that are the fundamentals that elevate their overall excellence.

Bartending and mixology are trying professions with unsociable hours and busy shifts – mixologists are dedicated to customer experience and, though they create wonderful creations that wow guests, are often not applauded enough for their devotion and contribution to the industry. The BMAs want to give these individuals their well-deserved and overdue applause.

The award for Best Mixologist will be judged on an individual’s creativity, flair and understanding of flavour within cocktail artistry. Mixology is an art, and we want to celebrate the artists by showcasing your achievements to the industry.

If you are a skilled and talented bartender that takes pride in your craft and puts the consumer experience at the forefront of what you do, we would love your applications for the Best Mixologist award. Are you a Bar Manager or Owner? If yes, why not shine a light on your venue’s star mixologist and showcase their amazing work and dedication to the industry? After all, our industry would be nothing without the hard work of these key players.

We are taking applicants from any mixologist in any hospitality venue, highlighting how excellence in cocktail craft can help a venue to stand out from the crowd. This award is all about celebrating your expertise and recognising the passion and hard work that you put in.
