Last weekend saw the fifth annual bacchanal of Victoria's Art of the Cocktail festival - three days of cocktail workshops, tastings and competitions bringing together some of the industry's biggest names and thirstiest cocktail fans.
This year's cocktail workshops saw heavyweights such as David Wondrich, Philip Duff and Jeffry Morgenthaler hosting 90-minute sessions along with the first Craft Distillery panel, which brought together some of BC's finest craft distillers. Best Home Bartender was won by Megan Will and Team Vancouver reigned triumphant at Victoria Spirits' Ultimate City Cocktail Competition thanks to Robyn Gray, David Mott and Alex Black.
