The winner will proceed to compete at the global stage for the title of the World’s Most Experimental Bartender in Scotland. Winners of this year’s competition will also be given a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to showcase their artistry through an ‘Experimental Expedition’, visiting Tokyo International Bar Show and Bar Convent Brooklyn to take in two of the world's most influential bar shows.
