Washington D.C. bartender Chai Lee is crowned Gran Coramino Bartender of the Year 2023!
In the first-of-its-kind bartender competition, 15 bartenders from around the nation came together in Las Vegas for The Coramino Cup hosted by Kevin Hart. The competition was fierce, and the bartenders poured their heart and hustle, talent and skill into this epic event.
From the 15 finalists, only six bartenders were chosen to move on to the second round, judged on speed and accuracy. In round two, the bartenders were tasked with choosing a hidden ingredient and incorporating it into their cocktails. This brought the competition down to two final bartenders. In the final round, the bartenders created three cocktails inspired by each of the judges’ choice.
After an extremely close and awe-inspiring battle, Chai Lee was crowned the Gran Coramino Bartender of the Year 2023.
Congratulations to all the finalist bartenders who competed in the first-annual Coramino Cup and congratulations to Chai Lee, who will be featured in a full-page feature in Chilled Magazine along with a paid ambassadorship.
