Course overview
Bring new techniques and ideas to your bar with this one-week programme for working bartenders and hospitality professionals. The focus is on developing original cocktails and making informed choices about flavour, ingredients and presentation.
You’ll explore methods such as fat-washing, clarification and carbonation, alongside botanical ingredients, infusions and bitters. Flavour pairing and signature cocktail development connect those techniques to drinks you can design, balance and present in a professional setting.
The programme also connects creativity with the business of running a bar. Costing, inventory and menu planning help you consider how a drink fits into a beverage menu, giving your cocktail ideas a practical commercial context.
