Cocktail: Journey | Bartender: Kush Patel

The drink Journey is a clear representation of me. The struggles I have been through to become a bartender and, where I am right now, a bit of my background. I come from a place where alcohol is prohibited, and I still turned out to be a bartender and fought against everyone to be where I am today.

Kush Patel
Hi, my name is Kush Patel. I am a bartender from India. I have been working in the industry fro past 5 years. I started my journey with Hard Rock Cafe, India. I moved to Canada in 2020 and currently I am working as a bartender at Twoforks in Port Stanley since 2022. The reason I wanted to become a bartender because I love hospitality and I love to create new cocktails and ideas which can help me improve my knowledge and skills to another level. I have 2 goals in life: I want to get my cocktail journey known as one of the classic cocktails and I want to win the title of World's Best Bartender and represent my country, and the knowledge I have with everyone.
