    this series is awesome. getting a small behind the scenes look into a bar and their concept, it's like getting to know the folks at that cool bar in your town that makes you feel like a regular. it's also very cool that the bars are willing to share some of their signature cocktail recipes. that gives people from other parts of the world like me the opportunity to have a taste of the bar when visiting it is very unlikely. quality content for sure. i vote for more videos like this, cheers!

    Love this concept. I especially love the tangents about specific ingredients, like the right ratios for a honey syrup or the appropriate proof of bourbon. It’s so nerdy, but hearing a real-world professional talk about those things is hugely educational and helpful for those of us trying to improve our at-home game.

    Great videos! These tours have been awesome! If you are ever back in NC, come check out the classic cocktail bars we have here in Asheville. It's impressive for a small city in the mountains.

    Love this series! I always try and find a great cocktail bar when I'm in a new city so this series really hits. I'm biased because I live here, but imo the cocktail scene in Austin is one of the best in America (at least out of the places I've been priveleged enough to get to visit). If you're ever in ATX I def think there'd be some bars that would take you up on showcasing them ;)

    Been following you since before you quit bartending at Cole’s (that may not have been a super long time ago lol) but I know I had planned to come visit you at Cole’s if I was ever in LA.. with that being said, I’m the GM of a craft cocktail/wine bar in Memphis, called Hen House Wine Bar and would LOVE to have you come in some time!

    I went to the Haymaker during Christmas and ordered off the holiday drinks menu. All of them were terrible. No balance. Not enjoyable.

    • @freepour
      @freepour  3 роки тому +1

      I wouldn’t judge them on the Holiday menu. They did the Miracle pop up during Christmas and those drinks were mandated to be served by Cocktail Kingdom. Although I haven’t had any of them I do know that the drinks are formulated to appeal to the widest demographic possible. So really it’s better to go back and try some of the house drinks. Not one drink I had while there was off balance or terrible
