Bartenders from all over the world attended the 2019 Tales of the Cocktail (TOTC) event in New Orleans, Louisiana, during the week of July 16-21. The annual industry event catering to the spirits industry and its professionals again drew brand ambassadors, bartenders, writers, suppliers and cocktail enthusiasts from around the globe to the Big Easy for seminars, social gatherings, awards and cocktail competitions. Connecticut’s Victoria Tenzyk of Bridgeport’s Hub and Spoke and New Haven’s Hamilton Park was one of five U.S.-based bartenders to receive a merit award in the 2019 Brockmans World Gin Day #Brocktail competition, earning her a trip for two to TOTC.
