COOLE SWAN LAUNCH



Mixo-logic worked with Scion Spirits Company on the launch of their new brand, Coole Swan Liquer which is a premium cream liquer. We advised on the 'Perfect serve' and Paul Lambert also created a signature cocktail for the launch party held in The National Art Gallery on Tues 7th March.(Recipe to follow)

When asked what he thought of the brand Paul had this to say, " It is an elegant drink, pure unadulterated bliss. It's almost a shame to make cocktails with it!!!! But it is very versatile and works well in numerous cocktails. With the finest ingredients used to produce it, I hope it will soon be a must have in every bar."

FALSE ADVERTISING

It has been brought to my attention that a certain 'demonstration bartender' has been advertising that they are 'affeliated' to MIXO-LOGIC. I would just like to say that no bartender is affiliated to MIXO-LOGIC, we pride ourselves on hiring the best bartenders to work at our events and that this individual is not one of them.

I would just like say that if you hire this bartender you do so at your own risk and it is of no responsibility to us.

Thank you for your attention.
