Back by popular demand the series of inspirational workshops are designed to upskill Australian bartenders and will take place mid-August in Perth, Adelaide, Brisbane, Melbourne and Sydney. De Kuyper is proud partner with Salvatore Calabrese on this year’s program.

His career spans more than 40 years in the hospitality business, beginning in Maiori on Italy’s Amalfi Coast. “I am very excited to be visiting Australia for the first time and look forward to sharing my love and passion for the art of bartending with the local hospitality community” said Salvatore Calabrese announcing his partnership with De Kuyper The Works.

Attendees will have the opportunity to gain new knowledge across liqueurs’ versatility and creative mixology techniques from Salvatore, while learning about the history and production of De Kuyper, from its origins as a small family owned distillery in Holland in 1695 to its continued success today as a global brand, rich in family history.

To paraphrase Mark Twain, “the rumours of vodka’s death are greatly exaggerated”. Vodka remains one of the world’s most popular drink and is still a key ingredient in many classic, and new, cocktails. International Vodka Day is the opportunity to revisit an old favourite cocktail or showcase a different brand, either way it is a day to celebrate this versatile drink.
