The Institute of Hotel Management (IHM) Mumbai recently hosted the highly anticipated bartending competition, Bartales, showcasing the exceptional talent of aspiring mixologists from across the city.
The adage, "Any moment in time can be a point of beginning to anything," resonates deeply with the story of Bartales. This innovative competition, born from a simple idea in 2022, has rapidly evolved into a platform for budding bartenders to showcase their creativity and talent.
The inception of Bartales can be traced back to a student's vision, nurtured and brought to life with the guidance of the F & b department team. The core concept was straightforward: to unite aspiring mixologists and provide them with a space to experiment with new flavors, techniques, and concepts.
In just two years, it has attracted a diverse pool of talented participants and garnered significant recognition within the industry.
One of the defining features of Bartales is its emphasis on creativity. Participants are encouraged to think outside the box, experiment with unconventional ingredients, and develop unique flavor profiles. This freedom fosters a culture of innovation, where each cocktail is a testament to the bartender's imagination and skill.
This year's competition was centered around the theme of Mexico, celebrating the country's rich culinary heritage and iconic spirit, tequila.
Led by the dedicated guidance of Abhishek Chowdhury and Medha Bhattacharya from the F & b department at IHM Mumbai, a team of 15 talented students from 8 prestigious colleges in Mumbai participated in the event. The competition was judged by a panel of industry experts, including Yogesh Sonawane, Akshay Sail, and Jayant Pawar.
