Congratulations to the Alchemist Bar who has won the DC Cocktail Festival cocktail competition with their innovative cocktail creation featuring Comisario Tequila. The festival, situated in the heart of the nation's capital, provided an ideal stage for creative mixologists to exhibit their remarkable skills and imagination.

Mixologists from Washington DC's top bars and restaurants competed with a variety of spirits as their base ingredient at DC Cocktail Festival, where innovation and tradition blend in the pursuit of crafting the ultimate cocktail experience. This year, the spotlight shines on Comisario Tequila, as three esteemed bars vie for the title of best cocktail using this exquisite spirit. At The Alchemist, creativity flows with their use of Day of the Dead Blanco, while Medina showcases the refined elegance of Comisario Blanco. Over at STFU Navy Yard, the smooth complexity of Reposado took center stage.

The event's highlight was the crowned winner, Alchemist Bar's, who won the competition with their, Up In Smoke Cocktail, an exquisite creation that skillfully blends Tequila Comisario Blanco from the collector's Dia De Los Muertos Bottle with the vibrant flavors of lime, blood orange, pineapple, and jalapeño. This innovative cocktail captivated both attendees and judges, further establishing Alchemist Bar's reputation as a leader in mixology and creative cocktail design.

"We are incredibly proud of our collaboration with Alchemist Bar, whose talented team has truly elevated the art of cocktail-making," stated Luis Cota. "Their exceptional Up In Smoke Cocktail not only highlights the unique characteristics of Comisario Tequila but also embodies the spirit of innovation and craftsmanship that our brand stands for."

Benefits of the Up In Smoke Cocktail:

  • Elevated Flavor Profile: Combines the smoothness of premium tequila with vibrant fruit and spice notes.
  • Artistic Presentation: Served from the elegantly crafted Dia De Los Muertos Bottle, this cocktail is perfectly balanced, with the creative mixologist adding a visually striking smokey bubble atop the glass for enhanced appeal.
  • Innovative Mixology: Showcases cutting-edge techniques and creative flavor pairings.
  • Festival Acclaim: Attendees and industry experts at the DC Cocktail Festival recognized and celebrated the exceptional mixology of Alchemist Bar and the distinctive quality of Comisario Tequila to elevate cocktails.
