Javier Ramirez started working in the F&amp;B industry at a very young age at his family&#8217;s restaurant. Soon after he started working his first casino job at Dos Caminos inside the Palazzo Casino. Working his way around the strip of Las Vegas, he began working at RM Seafood where the opening of RX Boilerroom gave him a chance to be behind the bar and he fell in love with it. Javier trained and studied hard to become a bartender knowing it&#8217;s a never-ending training of new spirits, techniques, and cocktails. After a few months, he joined the USBG LAs Vegas chapter to improve his skills. He then started to challenge himself and began to compete in cocktail competitions to take his craft to a new level and met great new people that he now calls friends. It took a while for Javier to get to this position he is in now, competition after competition creating and prepping. It&#8217;s all worth it in his eyes. The friends and memories are the real treats for him.

A Portland native, Caitlin Laman first found herself behind a bar after moving to Boston to play rugby and study business at Babson College. That inaugural bartending gig — at the Foggy Goggle, a Boylston Street dive for Red Sox-fanatics — taught her the finer points of respecting (and protecting) a bar during extremely high volume service, not to mention how to speak with a thick Boston accent. After graduating with a BS in Business Administration, Caitlin made her way to New York to play for the New York Rugby Club, all the while moonlighting as a bartender and fine-tuning her knowledge of spirits and the art of elevated bar service. \nIn 2009, she moved to San Francisco where she helmed the much-lauded Mission District bar Trick Dog. There, she led the bar to an incredible list of accolades including Tales of the Cocktail’s Best Bar Team (2014) and Bar Fight Champion (2014), a James Beard finalist nomination for Outstanding Bar Program (2015) and two consecutive years on Drinks International “World’s 50 Best Bars” list (No.33 in 2014, No.40 in 2015). It was at this time she was named Food &amp; Wine’s Best New Mixologist (2014) and National Speed Rack Champion (2014). She has also consulted for notable programs such as Mexico City’s Licoreria Limantour (Drinks International “World’s 50 Best Bars” list #14, 2017) where she helped launch a new menu. \nIn her current role, Caitlin serves as Beverage Director for the <a href="https://www.acehotel.com/chicago" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Ace Hotel in Chicago </a>where she oversees beverage programs for City Mouse, Waydown and the hotel’s F&amp;B.

Carlos Enrique Cuarta is a native of Venezuela. He has now been a long time resident of the USA and the great city of Chicago—11 years. From his beginnings in South America to the present he has collected an incredible amount of culture. His enthusiasm for life, and his inexhaustible curiosity are an example to many people he has touched in his career as one of Chicago&#8217;s finest bartenders. A note to the reader, Carlos has never worked behind a Chicago bar establishment, however, he has tirelessly pushed the limits as a bartender for many spirit brands, private clients, and catering companies. A notable accomplishment since it takes indisputedly more commitment and perseverance to pursue the art of craft cocktailing on one&#8217;s own time and dime. \nThat kind of tenacity has not gone unnoticed, however. In 2010, Carlos was the recipient of the Diageo Celebrate the Future Scholarship Fund, a scholarship that allowed him to continue his spirits education at the prestigious BAR (Beverage Alcohol Resource) in New York City. Over the years, during his involvement in the USBG Illinois Chapter, Carlos has been extremely active in supporting his fellow bartenders and mentor, Bridget Albert, at the Academy of Spirits, various charitable organizations, and also mentoring and financially assisting other Latino bartenders in pursuing our great craft. In his spare time, he continues to improve his skills by attending classes put on by the likes of industry icons like Dale Degroff, Steve Olson, and Junior Merino. \nThose who know Carlos can personally attest also to his insatiable need to experiment with the elements of the cocktail. At home he is constantly working on various infusions, syrups, cordials and recipes for his own pleasure, but also in preparation for the many projects and competitions he has committed himself to. In fact, Carlos, though grounded in classical mixology, has never shied away from modern challenges. Though he has worked for brands in the Bacardi family, Beam Global, and Diageo, he has also developed cocktail recipes for PepsiCo, Wrigley Gum, and Red Bull. \nAll in all, Carlos has dedicated his life to raising up the bartending craft and at no expense to his lust for life. In fact, they are one in the same. As Carlos says, “Always be sipping”

Kevin Denton’s bartending résumé may includes Michelin star restaurants and iconic New York City names, but he got off to a humble industry beginnings. Denton worked at college town bar and restaurant called Rulloff’s, while attending Cornell University in Ithaca, New York. After manning the back-of-house and later bartending, Denton moved to New York, a city that afforded him opportunities to pursue two of his passions: music and hospitality. \nDenton has contributed a deft hand to the city’s mainstay cocktail bars, including Danny Meyer’s Tabla, Mayahuel, and Hotel Delmano. He has also served as a general manager of Gramercy Terrace at the Gramercy Park Hotel. He was bar director at Wylie Dufresne’s legendary wd~50, as well as at Alder until their closings. \nToday, Denton is lending his booze-genius as the national mixologist for Pernod-Ricard USA. Satisfying his musical itch, his band, “The Crooners,” is the House Band at Eleven Madison Park.

Hugo started bartending in a club during the weekend to make money on the side; but after falling in love with his new profession, he quit his boring TV job to devote his life to this new passion. Since he needed to make more than vodka red bulls and mojitos, he started making his own cocktails to finally leave the club to become a bar back in a craft tiki bar in Paris, the Dirty Dick. A month later, he was behind the bar six days a week making zombies, daiquiris and other amazing tiki drinks. After his wife brought him to New York last summer, he decided to stick with the french crowd and started making drinks at ECC Lower East Side where he continues to learn to make cocktails. \n&nbsp;

After both tending bar and managing at SoBou, Konrad moved on to create and manage the beverage program at Doris Metropolitan for two years. In the Fall of 2015, Konrad became a founding partner of El Libre, the French Quarter&#8217;s first Cuban-themed cafe.

Carlos Ruiz, one of most dynamic young mixology talents today, now oversees the cocktail programs at Crystal Springs Resort’s restaurants and bars. \nA native of Lima, Peru, Carlos came to the United States at the age of eight and has worked in the restaurant industry since he was fourteen. Carlos studied software engineering in college before deciding it would not be a fulfilling career path.

He then moved on to Washington House in Basking Ridge, where he developed the bar program. He credits General Manager Marc Hudacsko for helping him understand flavor. He then left to develop the program at Agricola in Princeton, turning it into one of the state’s top cocktail destinations. \nJust 24, Carlos has already become one of the top mixologists in New Jersey, having won numerous cocktail competitions. Awards include 1st place in the New Jersey Restaurant &amp; Hospitality Association’s 2015 “Mixologist of the Year” competition, 1st place in the 2016 Iron Shaker Cocktail Competition, Top 25 Sherry Cocktail Competition 2015, 1st place Renaissance Hotel Bar Brag 2015 cocktail competition, Washington DC, 1st place Sailor Jerry “Beat it Rummy” Cocktail Competition 2016, 1st place Copper and Kings Mixtape Cocktail Competition 2016. 1st place Ocean Vodka Hawaii Competition 2016. \nOne of his many creations will be featured in the 75th anniversary book for Moscow Copper Co., makers of the original copper Moscow Mule mug.

Between Jackson 5 tunes and the sound of ice melting in a glass of Dr. Pepper and lime, a patient grandmother taught Chandler to make pie. That small memory led her across the world to study culinary arts in Costa Rica. As a chef, she has studied, worked and taught in places such as Abu Dhabi, Hawaii and Italy. Hoping to spend more time setting the ground work for her personal company, Chandler transitioned her kitchen skills to the bar. This allowed her to travel back home to Texas and reconnect with her roots. Chandler found a home at Culinary Dropout in Austin. A concept that truly speaks to her persona in the industry. A love affair, now 18 years in the making has found itself slightly derailed due to COVID-19. While hoping she will be able to find a position as the landscape of the service industry changes, Chandler has now started teaching cocktail and cooking lessons online.

I love entertaining for my friends and I&#8217;ve come to discover through working in a bar that a man with who can make a good cocktail ends up with a lot of friends! In all seriousness though, I&#8217;m just a simple kid from a small town who has a passion for the industry, for the workers of this industry and the patrons who keep us all employed. I was fortunate enough to fall into the crew that opened Extra Fancy, and then had the grace to be a part of the opening crew at The Up&amp;Up. In my spare time I enjoy sipping dark spirits, creating music and am currently in the process of developing a website that I hope will become a free blogging outlet for the workers of our industry to build a voice. I guess that&#8217;s enough for now. Can&#8217;t give away the whole recipe 😉
