A massive thank you to all the bartenders who brought the heat, creativity, and energy behind the bar—you made this kickoff unforgettable.

This time what happened in Vegas is not staying in Vegas… because there are 3 incredible West Coast semifinalists heading to Los Angeles to compete in The 3rd Annual Coramino Cup.

The Vegas bartending community showed up big—over 80 guests packed the room and kept the vibe electric all night. The Gran Coramino cocktails flowed making it a perfect night for tequila lovers.

Special thanks to our Vegas host, last year’s champ Bud Shaw and to the three amazing judges, longtime bartenders Alex Velez, Marcus Conui, and Chris Militello who brought their expertise and energy to the table.

An unforgettable start to the 3rd Annual Coramino Cup. We can’t wait for the East Coast Semi-Finals happening next week—stay tuned!
