The first ever @blacktotrum Cocktail Competition is a fact! We had the pleasure to witness the bartenders from Top Hong Kong bars shaking and stirring cocktails for our judges to taste.
After presenting their cocktails in the 1st round, the top 6 moved om to the 2nd round: The Market Challenge! In this round, the contestants had 15min to create a cocktail using seasonal fruits, which were only revealed at that time. So it was a round to think quick and be creative!
After two rounds of fierce competition, we are proud to announce the winner of 2023: Evan Mak @subgau from @argobarhk !
第一屆 @blacktotrum 雞尾酒大賽已圓滿結束！來自香港多間頂级酒吧的調酒師們攪拌和調製美味又有特色的雞尾酒，讓評判品嚐評核。
在第一輪比賽中，所有參賽者都展示了自己創作的雞尾酒，前 6 名成功進入第二輪比賽：市場挑戰！在這一輪比賽中，參賽者需要在 15 分鐘内利用現場公佈的時令水果即場調製出一款雞尾酒。大家都把握時間發揮創意！
經過兩輪激烈的比賽，我們很高興地宣布 2023 年雞尾酒大賽的冠軍：來自 @argobarhk 的 Evan Mak @subgau ！

I ❤️ HK
Follow in our footsteps, and experience the vibrant life of Hong Kong on a day trip with Timeless & Tasty. Share a day and night out in this beautiful city! I ❤️ HK Whisky is an Islay's classic peat whisky with a Hong Kong exclusive label. On the nose, orange peel, thick-cut bacon, with sea shells and smouldering coals. The palate has hickory smoke and hints of Lapsang Souchong tea with salted caramel and dark chocolate. Sea spray and baked apple fade, leaving heavy smoke, truffle salt and sweet spice at the finish.The flavour is delicate and warming, like our city. Raise a glass to our beloved home, where the heart is.
跟住 Timeless & Tasty 遊走香港一日，體驗充滿活力的香港生活，一同分享這個美麗城市的日與夜！I ❤️ HK 威士忌以香港獨家的酒標配以艾雷島的經典泥煤威士忌，充滿橙皮、厚切煙肉、貝殼和燃燒的煤塊香氣。口感是山核桃煙燻和正山小種紅茶，加上鹹焦糖和黑朱古力。海浪和烤蘋果的味道逐漸消失，留下濃烈的煙燻、松露鹽和甜香料的尾韻。口味如同我們的城市一樣，細膩而溫暖醉人。舉起酒杯向我們心愛的家致敬，家是心之所在。
Hooray! Whiskies & More's 5th anniversary whisky has officially launched! Speyburn 10 Years is a sweet dram with honey, syrup and candies, mixed with ripe exotic fruits like papaya and pineapple.
