The event
will consist of three rounds, first is a speed round to show the bartender’s behind
the bar skills and dexterity and mental ability to create on the fly flavorful tiki
cocktail. The second round will be a three item tiki cocktail, showing
the ability to create the most common type of cocktail found in the business.
Final round will be a "free form" tiki cocktail, showing the
creative ability to make an impromptu cocktail from ingredients available.
These are the primary skills that a proficient bartender must be able to exhibit
on a daily basis and the skills that will make a winner at this event.
The contest
will be judged in the first two rounds by industry leaders and international
spirits judges, the final round will be judged by a panel made up of 5 people
chosen from the audience on the day of the event. All judging will be blind tastings without the panel not knowing who made each cocktail. There is
a point system for examining each cocktail that is based on appearance, flavor
and overall impression. The entrant with the most points after three
rounds will be the winner.
