I have more than 30 years experience in the cocktail industry as a bartender, bar owner and for the last 20 years as an international bartender trainer, training more than 40,000 of the world's bartenders.

Throughout my bartending career I have won numerous awards and titles including: 

Noblesse World Mixology Champion

Vinexpo International Cocktail Competition: Grand Champion 

Multiple Gold medalist: Drinks International Cocktail Challenge

2 x Guinness World Record for the 1-hour cocktail speed-mix, (196 different cocktails).

I have written 7 cocktail books: 

101 Award-Winning Cocktails

Ultimate Bartending

The World Encyclopaedia of Cocktails

The Mammoth Book of Cocktails

2500 Cocktails: The Definitive Guide

The Cocktail Cabinet 

Cocktail Mixing Made Easy.

For the last 20 years, I have travelled the world delivering training courses for bartenders and mixologists of all skill levels for many of the biggest hotel chains, nightclubs and bar groups. 

I believe that everyone has the ability to create world class drinks regardless of whether they are industry professionals or enthusiastic home bartenders and accordingly, with these courses I have the opportunity to share the skills and drink mixing techniques of the very best bartenders with everyone.
