Did someone intentionally try to edit this video to be as unejoyable as possible?
kiffe22 it’s a recap of all the contestants
why was no one else talking about this?
Lol
Ikr
Its a recap dummy, example if you watch sportscenter, its a recap, like the news, short clips come on man
the guy who made the cologne probably goes to other ppls house and changes the thermostat
What a douche lol
Was rooting for him til he sprayed the cologne.
Did he spray it into the drink or...? What does that add to the flavor?
@@JackIsNotInTheBox it adds aroma

"the best gin in the world"
@@dylancampbell3913 only if you have never had any other gin
@@OleNilsen95 yup
@@dylancampbell3913 I may come 4 months too late, but I've got a bottle of Heindrick's Gin, and it's just better.
@@patricknnt1301 better late than never! and v nice, that's where it's at
I came here for badass bartender tricks. All I got where a bunch of cocktails I'll never try in my lifetime.
Lmao right
I would to try the avocado syrup tho! Sounds interesting! I’ve been into making cocktails since march when COVID started here in NYC..! I couldn’t get out so making drinks is my thing now
bartender :"may i interest u in gin infused cockt..."
me : " is modelo time foo"
Awuebo salud perros
person: can i have the wifi password?
bartender: you need to buy a drink first
person: i'll have a coke
bartender: that'll be $2
person: so what's the wifi password?
bartender: you need to buy a drink first. all lowercase, no spaces:)
Why do I feel like you own a bar? 😂
Ahahahha awesome. I’m deff using this 💯💯
@@Brandon-nz7pd i wish lmao, i’m barely at the legal bartending age atm (18)
@@ausarthevile7125 whatever you do, you gonna be successful 🤝
that’s crazy 😂😂👌🏼
Why can't any of them pour equal amounts in the glasses. It's like none of them had siblings.
Petter Svalby hahaha my brother would always take the bigger drink / peice of cake
Did you notice none of them can free pour either and always have to use jiggers??? They don't know HOW TO POUR.
if you want to make a good cocktail you need to measure, free pouring can only be so accurate and for speed it's great but for taste not so much
"Free pouring can only be so accurate" - UNLESS you're actually a PROFESSIONAL BARTENDER who learned that way and has been doing it for decades, you mean. czcams.com/video/G2IZO5kkL0Q/video.html&lc
@@bartenderlife4002 well, the five professionals who made it to the finals at this national competition disagree with you.
I was expecting people to be throwing around the bottles and pouring 10 drinks at once but was very pleased to see everyone being methodical
There is ALWAYS an Asian better than you.
Ironic, there's always a white person better than me
What if you're Lebron?
Hannah Robinson and there’s always an asian better than that white person
I went to Asia none of them could speak English the way I do. So technically that fucks your statement up. Why am I so angry I really want to hit you.
why do people keep saying that
Y'all have to remember that there's also vaping competitions
Why?
But this is a cool competitions doe
uhhhh .. can I get a pepsi please?
GoddessGothicLolita looooool
we dont serve trash, however we do have coke
Pepsi is better than Coke zero, but their advertising sucks.
Is coke ok?
No Coca-Cola is not 'ok', we *all* know Pepsi is superior. *All hail the Pepsi Master race!*
They aren’t bartenders. They are mixologists. They know their liquor, but if they had to bang out tickets, I feel they wouldn’t do so well.
What's the difference? lol
How would u know
I wonder what’s the first step to being a mixologist
@@ayrtong6 i think there's a school or something for it, I'm not sure but mixology is quite complicated
I hear the term mixologist isn’t a real thing used by bartenders. It’s just something someone made up to make themselves feel more important than a “regular bartender.” They give off the same vibe as wine tasting experts.
Lots of pressure but with the creative nature and technical requirements, these folks all deserved to be there!
Pepsi bottle coca cola glass
Matthew Ledden I don’t give a dam.
Can I get a BudLite
Tony Lopez dilly dilly
Tony Lopez am not a bartender but I would of just gave you water which is a better option
Your beer choice tell me that your opinion is not important anyway....
I'm a bartender and anytime someone ask me to recommend a drink, I recommend a bottle of beer. Easiest drink to serve
Jesse Gettings same lmao
“We’re gonna start with the best gin in the world”
*holds up Bombay sapphire*
Oh sweetie... no...
Hmm, which one would you recommend?
@@rspswhatup8187 Literally almost anything else that isn't in a plastic jug.
And even some of the plastic jug ones.
They sponsored the event lol
@@rspswhatup8187 personally even beefeater is better. i also know a tropical one that rocks
the botanist for the win
Im DYING OF LAUGHTER at all these bartender jokes!!
“Uhhhh I’ll have a marti-“
Rum and coke coming right up
Didn't even know this was a thing....CZcams you never cease to amaze me
I would like to try the avocado syrup tho! Sounds interesting! I’ve been into making cocktails since march when COVID started here in NYC..! I couldn’t get out so making drinks is my thing now
Best bartender is the one who remembers what you drink when you order second round,witout ask you again,and remember the bill(without write down on paper,and he is at the position to explain you what you have drink and buy for others the whole night)
kosmas polydorakis incorrect.
Why? I Like hear your opinion
I agree and good service and chat
Japanese bartender best in the world, really gives you a feel of comfort behind that bar.
But can they beat 88rising bartender? Uh huhhhhhhh
Momo Rata he got that closeup ASMR thing down
KAYAMA SAN
THE GOD, HIROYASU KAYAMA!!
It seems like all the filler with none of the actual show.
0:25 Shaking a music box
0:26 Cheerleader pompoms
0:27 The salt and pepper
0:28 The Maracas
0:29 The Perfume
never knew there was such a show..m out of this world 😂😂
Yes. Another W for the Boston. Man, we’re blessed.
Vegas is a joke. Where is Steve the Bartender!? His smile while shaking makes the best magic of all!!
Lmao did I just see Billy McFarland at 5:33
Nobody:
CZcams recommended: bArTenDer cOmPetEtIoN
What if someone went up there and just made a rum and coke
*Ah yes looking at drinks I can't drink..*
“Tree people died makin tis cocktail”
Hahahahahhahaha
this actually has to be super fun to watch
Excellent!
6:07 mood
These judges are so chill
Great stuff! (that I wish I could do).
That guy drinking off the bottle is getting lit
Ok, now get me that beer!
I love that Japanese bar tender of Tokyo 😍😍😍. He's English is also very good. Must see his video
where can i watch this ? i dont live in USA
Bombay Sapphire is the best gin in the world? Yeah, no, thanks.
"America's top bartender"
"Toronto"
Toronto is in America
Marcellus Wallace no it’s not lol
James Greig Technically it’s in North America so therefore in America
@@jamesgreig1708 the American continent
There really is a competition for everything...
The Canadian was so polite haha
no
I mean I just wanted a beer
Ahab's Odyssey is the coolest name
It's 5am and here I am watching 5 people shake cocktails
Tipsy bartender will always be my favorite
Congratulations!!
Somewhere, there's a 2 year old japanese girl that is laughing at these "amateurs"
Corona with lime please!
Being a taste tester would be fun!
They would all taste gross
I'll have a whiskey coke
*5 minutes of fancy stuff*
Here's your martini
3:00 " We will start with the best Gin in the world! " Bro, did you even tried other Gins before? There are so much more better Gins than Bombay S.
Pretty sure the whole things sponsered by Bombay so he kinda has to say it
luca kropf yeah idk if you saw on the shelf in the back was a shelf full of Bombay
Bombay S is pretty good and it’s not abrasive as other Gins, so mixing it works wonders when you’re trying to hit a distinct flavor. Pick a recipe that tries to highlight a particular aspect of the drink and make it twice, one with Tanqueray and the other with Bombay S. I’m not saying it’s the best tasting but in the sense of mixing, you can’t go wrong :)
I didn't know Michael Buble was a bartender 😛
Nice competition
Why is this in my recommended😂
Seems like something the IBA would come up with AKA not up to date with what’s ”best”.
Is the announcer referring to the bartenders as chefs?
lol
What’s up with all the wasted moments? Just make my drink like I paid for
Didn’t know AimbotCalvin was a mixologist
Want to know something tastier?
A glass of straight whiskey.
YES. A sensible answer
Single malt works for me. Or Guinness depending on my mood
@@DrPaul-nw4nx
Exactly.
Vodka is better
@@connoristhatguy taste wise I wouldn't say vodka taste so good
If I could choose one of them to be my bartender for life Justin all the way up!
How does one become a Global Spirits expert
I admire the thing you do
i think i've barbacked for justin at a competition before lol! if so, he made an amazing shot with frozen cubes of watermelon. i wish this was a little more detailed, but you can't when mixologists are always making their own syrups and bitters.
My fav alcohol Bombay
Half bottle everyday 😂🤣🤣
Obviously a competition sponsored by Bombay Sapphire
The winner is Ran Dian the Asian guy,Saved your 6 mins
ran duan bro
“Very unique” you mean.........unique.
Yeaa.... let me get a beer
Sprayed the glass with cologne 🤢
It's clear that it's just a smell he made. Not actual cologne
He sprayed the wood underneath the glass. It's an aromatic. Not a flavor
It’s not in the drink in the drink. Anyone who liked this comment is a moron
Unless you lick your fingers after having a drink, I think you’ll be fine.
yeah the bottom of it. what's the problem? you plan on licking the glass?
Man they are really making competitions out of anything
Ummmmmm but Charles Joly isn't here so this is invalid.
Boston Baby!
Whats this episode called ?
The audience was nice though
I'm nervous watching this
Just get me a Bud...
6 years later it’s recommended
