Snow Queen Martini Masters 2013 Finalists

Thomas Aske, co-founder of Fluid Movement, the consultancy firm behind Purl and Worship Street Whistling Shop, has been named winner of the inaugural Snow Queen Martini Masters.

The finalists of the competition were invited to compete against one another in a live competition attended by some of the biggest names in the spirits industry, including bartenders, bloggers and press, at The Club at The Ivy in London on 19 March.

Each finalist mixed their submitted recipe and were marked on the drink’s appearance, taste, aroma and presentation.

From the preliminary round, three of the bartenders  – Chris Edwards of The Parlour in London, Jamie Steophenson of The Bar Academy in Manchester, and Aske – were chosen to proceed to the grand final for the chance to win the ultimate prize of US$5,000.
