    so as a judge you sip taste all the drinks, and 54 countrys are represented. 10 drinks each is 540 sips. I dont care how small those sips are. You're wasted after that round.

      I don't think they each try the 10 drinks because even at one point in the video he said "my drink is..."

      i know bartenders that can drink a whole bottle of vodka and not even seem a little drunk.

      Trust me, they are drunk.

      Toon van Mosselveld They might be, but they still can walk in a straight line and multiply 2 digit numbers with each other. They can handle it as if it were nothing.

    Really disappointed tbh, I thought we'd actually see the bar drink mixing skillage from the competitors, not fast forward through it all and only see interviews.. Like, what was even the point in this

      Reality show - (literally) 4 minutes of content stretched into an hour-long show. This is the reason they're so popular - they're REALLY cheap to make.

    • @TessPosthumus
      @TessPosthumus  7 років тому +209

      Hi Samuel, thank you for the feedback and you are right. It is a series and compressed into one episode for youtube. It has been aired by different broadcasting agencies throughout multiple countries but I've put it online so you could rewatch it if you'd like.

    • @samuelmcguigan3852
      @samuelmcguigan3852 7 років тому +19

      +Tess Posthumus Yeah that would be great, what I saw was awesome but it just felt disjointed and erratic.

  • @krognak
    @krognak 7 років тому +1300

    Yeah so, do we actually get to watch them MAKE the damn drinks? Or is this just all about the whizzing, whooshing camera angles and dramatic music. What a load of bollocks.

    As expected the japanese guy won, while these five were explaining pi's relationship to the sun or trying to fancy up their bar with little gimmicks this guy was working his ass of till 6 am he deserves the crown.

  • @tangyuan9231
    @tangyuan9231 3 роки тому +76

    the Japanese when he presents the cocktail brings my tears out. It touches my heart. only those who travel a lot away from home for so long will understand. and he wins I am so happy for him.

  • @johnnyliu7105
    @johnnyliu7105 7 років тому +236

    how can you choose 6 out of 54 with just 2 challenges?

    • @magnezon1
      @magnezon1 7 років тому +18

      you can if u know how to judge... u gotta take in consideration every little detail, from presentation, to garnish, taste, the meere show of the barman preparing the drink, the confidence, the treat you recieve, in this case according to the tests also their creativity, knowledge about food & drinks, how they deal with pressure, etc, etc, etc...
      its tough, and maybe a rush to go from 56 to 6, but as i said, it is possible to choose.

      @Micicl3 2 роки тому +2

      Nah most career bartenders suck and have inflated egos; I know because Im one of those people. I could easily cut a group of 50 bartenders down very quickly, small mistakes can show that you either dont understand the intricacies of the craft or that you dont care enough to do it right.

      @Kalaskula2000 8 років тому +12

      Well Tipsy has got a casual approach thats for sure but you can clearly see he understands what he is doing so I wouldn't go so far as to call him unproffesional :-P I mean after all...theese cocktails are supposed to be served at bars in parties right...Tipsy's way of preparing actually looks a but more "real" if you get my drift...and there is boobs!

    no matter how good you are at something, there's always an Asian better than you.

      I have many very good friends who are Asian and I know why they're so damn good. Discipline is key to everything in that amazing little nation of Japan and the massive country of China.

    Pro tip. Every bartender should know to pour the cheapest ingredients first so if you mess up you can start over and not waste alcohol.

    I wish I saw this before October last year when I went to Japan/Nara. I recognised the stairs he walked down, and the temple. Damn it. Would have been awesome to go to his bar soon after his crowning. Lol not the pregnancy kind of crowning.
