World’s Greatest Bartender in Residence

As a part of the students wine and beverage course, Colin began by giving students the history of alcohol before moving on to a session on how to personalize and sell cocktails and finishing with a practical class on cognac analysis, cocktail comparison and how to make cocktails.

Head Bartender at the Ritz in Paris, Colin Field is renowned for creating the legendary Hemingway Bar.  With the bar closed whilst the hotel undergoes major renovations, Colin is travelling the world visiting bars, making cocktails and searching for a Hemingway Bar atmosphere!

It was an honour to welcome Colin Field to Le Bouveret and the students who were lucky enough to join the class were absolutely delighted and highly impressed by the day.
