Attending Wines Steins and Cocktails was one of the most transformative experiences of my life. From the moment I walked through the doors, I knew I was in for something special.**Immersive Training The curriculum was a perfect blend of theory and hands-on practice. I dove into the world of spirits, liqueurs, and mixers, learning not just how to make cocktails, but also the science behind flavor profiles and the history of each drink. The classes were engaging, and I loved experimenting with different ingredients to create unique cocktails.**Professional Instruction Our instructors were incredibly knowledgeable and passionate about the craft. They shared invaluable industry secrets and provided personalized feedback on my techniques. Their guidance helped me refine my skills, teaching me the importance of efficiency and maintaining a clean bar.**Practical Experience The hands-on training was exhilarating. I spent countless hours behind the bar, mastering classics like Margaritas and Manhattans, as well as more contemporary drinks. Each session pushed me to improve my speed and precision, and I thrived under the pressure of a busy bar environment.***Networking Opportunities One of the highlights was the chance to connect with industry professionals and fellow aspiring bartenders. I formed friendships that I know will last beyond the classroom, and I gained insights that could open doors for my future in this vibrant industry.**Industry Insights The program also offered a deep dive into the hospitality industry. I learned about customer service excellence, bar management, and the latest trends in mixology. This knowledge has been invaluable, giving me a comprehensive understanding of what it takes to succeed in bartending.

Thank-you for such an upbeat, positive and optimistic overview of your learning experience and what you have achieved after taking part in the professional bartender and spirits program here at Wines, Steins and Cocktails. We wholeheartedly agree with your comments on the value of all the hands-on training that continues to be the flagship of a nationally awarding-winning program since its inception in 1987. Undoubtedly, there is no substitute for as totally an immersive approach to accelerating the uptake and retrieval of the practical knowledge, skills and tools that have now provided you with the actual confidence that you have identified to excel on the job and on the interview. You obviously arrived at your decision to adopt this course of instruction, because you recognized the potential of an excellent return on your investment in the way of multiple streams of income, flexible hours that compliment your living style that enables you to be selective on the the types of employment opportunities available while working on your own time and terms for a refreshing change. And of course, as a professional, certified bartender and spirits pro, you can relocate at a drop of a hat, with the added perk that makes the trade virtually recession-proof -- a profession that's always in demand, good times or less favorable -- immune to political or economic swings. You can be assured that your investment of time and effort will provide ongoing employment opportunities and earning potential for a lifetime in all sectors of the hospitality industry: upscale and top-shelf restaurants, nightclubs, country clubs, hotels, university clubs, resorts, river boats, yacht clubs, casinos, cruise ships, the list goes on. And of course, you've also been exposed to the entrepreneurial considerations as per your thoughts of managing your own festive pro bartender service; perhaps a pub of your own or mobile business application. In closing, you've been able to accomplish so much in such a little time via a patented system, a direct path to achieving your goal of becoming a professional bartender and spirits pro, not in years or going into debt for a lifetime, a recession-proof trade that you'll recoup your investment in working but a few shifts on the job. Thank-you again for your commentary and your optimistic view for your future. We are pleased to be of assistance in providing the incite and training to help you achieve your goals. We wish you much continued success on your journey.

I decided to join this class to gain a little extra money while being a college student but still have a flexible schedule to fit my studies. I was nervous at first with trying to balance this course with college but I can assure you if you are also in school it is 100% manageable! My instructor was very understand and accommodating with scheduling. Now onto the class itself - the hands on practice and visual representations made learning things so much easier. If there was ever any confusion or just something I wanted to go over again my instructor was always open to elaborating on it. The repetitive practice of drinks makes me feel so much more confident going into a job. My instructor also went over how to fully prepare for an interview which is such an important skill to have that not even schools teach us nowadays. With having this class under my resume I just got a job at the country club I was wanting to work for! Overall a great experience and could not reccomend this class more!

Thank-you for such a positive commentary on your experience while participating in the Professional Bartender Program. Yes, you're one-hundred percent correct as to how important as to the value of know-how, confidence and direction are for acquiring the type of employment that you desire upon completion of your learning experience. These goals, which you clearly recognize, are the bedrock of the entire 50-hour all hands-on professional mixology, bartending and spirits curriculum.. You, like so many of our graduates enjoy the opportunity to have achieved success even prior to the completion of your training, having already gotten a job and multiple job offers beforehand. As always, your instructors are confident of your new skills, gotten in but a few weeks of quality instruction and at a minimal investment that you have already recouped by working only a few shifts at an a top-shelf establishment that your were totally ready to assume and hit the ground running with purpose and enthusiasm. And although, your new trade and exemplary skills are highly mobile and can be taken anywhere, you now are afforded the wonderful opportunity to work on your own time and terms at a respectable position that has already provided you with a healthy stream of income. Definitely an ace up the sleeve, since professional bartending is not only flexible and recession-proof, and will certainly pay for a lot of your college expenses and also good times during your this important time in your life. And, as you had considered; perhaps spend your forthcoming summer working at the beach, rather than the typical summer-grind type of job that college students are forced to work for lack of a more stimulating and upbeat alternative as a professional bartender. And of course, you're destined to meet many new and interesting people, some of which are in the position to assist you further in developing your new career upon graduation from college. All in all, what a great win-win situation and a smart decision on your behalf to pursue the trade to become a certified professional bartender and spirits pro. Your instructors and our company, Wines Steins and Cocktails wish you much continued success and thank you for selecting us to share the expertise that has provided you with a vehicle to confidently and comfortably bring your goals and aspirations into reality. Best of luck and warm regards.

I started attending this class because I wanted to start bartending as a career and within the first class I realized why this is a 5 star establishment. A lot of hands on experience making cocktails broken down and easy to understand, also the history of all the cocktails you learn really made the class worth it. With in the fourth class I already had the confidence to get a bartending job and ended up getting a job at an ****************** as a bartender a week later. Highly recommend!!!

Thank-you for the upbeat and positive review on your professional mixology and multi-spirits learning experience. You did an excellent job of mastering the skills and know-how that obviously give employers more reasons to hire you. We appreciate your candid remarks as to the tremendous amount of actual hands-on mixing practice and actual applications that was provided . And, as is expected; even as a gentleman and newly minted high-school graduate, the course was instrumental for enabling you to assume a top-shelf, full-time position even before you had completed all of your 50 hours of instruction. And, as we had discussed, the owner of the restaurant and conference center is a former student of our professional bartender and bar-management programs prior to opening the business almost 9 years ago. So, we're especially proud of you and all of our former graduates excelling at your trades and businesses. As is noted, "attitude determines altitude in life." We at Wines, Steins and Cocktails believe you have exhibited the discipline and work-ethic needed to succeed at your new profession. We wish you well and will keep in touch as to your request to assist you forward on acquiring yet another premium position at the hotel-casino resort that you have expressed a serious interest.

I am a recently attended the classes at wine steins and cocktails and i have to say it was a 10/10 experience. the instructor broke down everything from how to make drinks to running a business. after taking the course i now have the knowledge i need to walk into any bar and feel like i can just jump right back behind the bar. i am very pleased with the material and the knowledge i gained and retained from this course. his expertise and his ability to teach made it effortless to be engaged and excited for more classes. if your interested in attending school here i have no doubt that you to will feel the exact same way i do.

Thank-you for such constructive and positive comments are your learning experience. It was certainly our pleasure to assist you on acquiring your new skills and certifications as a Professional Mixologist. As you had noted, like a fair number of other former college students who elected to drop out of formal education, because it was expensive, time-consuming and not emotionally uplifting; you really found a new passion that provides you a variety of streams of immediate income, a host of perks, flexible hours and an opportunity to relocate at will and experience new people and exciting places. And of course, you were able to accomplish this in weeks and at an investment that you have been able to recover on just a few shifts on the job. Wow, seems to make a lot of sense as you put it all down on paper. Also, you're ready to hit the ground running when you elect to take up the many employment opportunities that are now available to the credentialed pro mixologist in the *************** industries. Yet, don't forget that no matter where you may relocate and at any time or situation in your life, you can hands-down, because of all of your hands-on training, secure a great paying job at any top-shelf restaurant, nightclub, country club or hotel establishment found in and around every community today. In closing, yes, you can always back to school, bt as you had suggested, you can now do it on your own time and terms while enjoying the type of tips and earnings needed to experience the things and people in life that you have always desired to do so. In closing, thank-you taking part in our program. It was our distinct pleasure to be of service. We wish you much success in your future.

I recently went and took this 8-10 course class and had *** teach me. This class is extremely hands on which I enjoyed so much. Being able to actually do the things I was learning about helped me to understand everything on a deeper level. The notes I received are beyond thorough and bring new insight to what mixology actually is. Not only did I learn how to make drinks and set up for events I also learned basic flare bartending skills that elevate my presence behind the bar. This class has taught me so much and I'm so glad I had the opportunity to learn under ***'s guidance.

All of your instructors enjoyed working with you on your new trade of professional ****************** management. You completed 50 hours+ of actual hands-on mixing experience, together with learning some flair bartender & shot-making expertise for the college and beach-bars that you will be visiting shortly. You were an excellent student of the trade; your comments and questions were much appreciated, as your thoughts really brought some additional energy to an already upbeat class. In any case, we wish you even much more fun and success while working you way through your college years. Your new job at the local casino, country club and supper club will surely fill your pockets of ready-made cash on the spot with each daily shift. No more waiting for bi-weekly pay-checks or being out of funds for the things you need and want to enjoy now. And, no more terrible scheduling and thankless bosses. You now have a trade that is not only highly mobile and recession-proof, but you can work on your own time and terms for change. So, enjoy the sizzle and vibes of the casino nightclubs and your sunshine on the beach, while achieving your dream of obtaining your college degrees in style. It was great to be of service; we wish you a healthy and successful future.

I elected to become a Professional mixologist in order to get a job up at college. The quality of the program was great. I got materials that will serve me a lifetime of knowledge. My teacher *** had great experience and really dove into the essentials of becoming a bartender. The amount of hands on action I got in my learning process I believe is unmatched and helped me greatly. Any questions I had, I got answers. Coming out of my class I do believe I learned greatly how to become a professional mixologist and think Wines Steins and Cocktails are the best in the business!!

And, we're not talking shot & beer-tender punch-in-the-mouth joints -- rather upscale, top-shelf restaurants, nightclubs, hotels, resorts, beach-front cabana-bars, country clubs, casinos and for the more adventurous, luxury liners and cruise ships. And ironically, you acquired the necessary skills and savvy in just a few weeks of training for less than what it costs for one mere college credit, while not having to spend but weeks, not years in college.

I recently had the pleasure of attending bartending classes at Wines, Steins, and Cocktails that exceeded all my expectations, and I am thrilled to share my experience. From start to finish, these classes were an absolute delight and a valuable learning journey. The instructor was a seasoned professional with a wealth of knowledge and a genuine passion for bartending. He made the learning process incredibly engaging, blending technical skills with fascinating insights into the history and culture of cocktails. His ability to break down complex techniques into simple, understandable steps was truly impressive. The course covered everything I hoped for and more. We started with the basics, such as understanding different types of spirits, mixers, and bar tools. As the classes progressed, we delved into more advanced techniques like layering drinks, garnishing, and even some flair bartending tricks. Each session built upon the last, ensuring a smooth learning curve. One of the highlights of this class was the hands-on practice. We spent a significant amount of time behind a fully equipped bar, which allowed us to apply what we learned immediately. This practical experience was invaluable, and it gave me the confidence to experiment and perfect my skills. Overall, this bartending class was a phenomenal experience. It was well-organized, educational, and immensely enjoyable. I walked away with a newfound appreciation for the art of bartending, a solid foundation of skills, and the confidence to entertain friends and family with my creations.I highly recommend this class to anyone interested in bartending, whether for professional aspirations or simply to elevate your home bar game.

I am a bartender/server at a microbrewery and my boss had given me the opportunity to take the mixology course at Wines Steins and Cocktails because he wanted to start serving cocktails at his establishment. I couldn't be more pleased with the depth of my instruction and the overall quality of the program. My instructor was extremely knowledgeable in the material and offered insightful explanations and practical tips throughout the course. The program provided me with adequate hands-on experience and a detailed workbook that supplies all the materials necessary to become a great mixologist. With this and the extra time made available for additional questions and practice, I have developed confidence in my ability to perform on the job and in future interviews. In summary, Wines Steins and Cocktails has exceeded my expectations in every aspect. From the quality of the instruction to the hands-on experience and additional support provided, this course is a must for anyone looking to elevate their mixology skills. I highly recommend it!

I am retiring soon and wanted to try something new and different. This class with all the hands on mixing experiences, work-book materials, and the unbelievable knowledge, expertise and skill of the instructor, have far exceeded my expectations. The extra time available for additional practice and questions was phenomenal. I feel I have the confidence and training I need to land a great job!!

Grateful for the fine commentary on your learning experience, while acquiring the valuable hands-on practice and know-how needed to achieve your certification as a professional mixologist and spirits pro. As you suggested, you desired something new, different and exciting to do now coming into retirement. Ironically, and for many reasons, there are more retirees pursuing the the trade of professional mixology than ever before -- more notably ladies and gentlemen see the trade as a lively and interesting way to meet people and make new friends. In addition, they are aware that they can make some great money working solely on their own time and terms for a change. And, the profession offers them unlimited job opportunities, flexible hours, mobility and perks like meals, bonuses and insurance. It's no wonder that professional mixology is an all season, recession-proof, money-making opportunity that continues to be ranked as a top part-time job for over 30 consecutive years.

In closing, thank-you for participating in our 50-hour professional mixology program. We are proud to count you as one of our graduate. And thank-you for the kind words. We all wish you good health and much continued success.

I contacted Wines Steins and Cocktails (WSC) because I was interested in learning more about the mixology profession and to be properly trained in the skills and concepts needed to be a quality bar tender. From the first phone conversation it was clear that WSC would provide the training and knowledge I was seeking and stood out amongst their competitors. The hands-on training, materials provided, and insights gained through the group discussions were above and beyond what I expected. The instructors were available and willing to answer any questions and provide extra practice behind the bar if desired. Upon completion of the program I was very confident in my skills and knowledge of the bartending trade, not only to confidently interview for a bartending position but to interview the business I applied to in determination of whether or not it was a good establishment to work for. I would highly recommend WSC to anyone interested in becoming a professional mixology or learning more about the trade or business.
