Subject: Are you Mixologist or Flairtender? or can YOU be both...
From: Adam Freeth

The UK bartenders have a distinct split when it comes to this issue of...Flair 
Bartenders can flip bottles well but ask them to make a quality, thought 
provoking, mouth watering drink using bourbon or gin.  This task given to the 
mixologist would be thought about the flair bartender on the other hand would 
throw a carton of juice at the bourbon, flip the lime wedge and be done.

please let me know what you think as this is an issue that frequantly comes up 
in our discussions during our BarSchool courses.  The question is can a 
serious mixologist be a flair bartender too, and can a flair bartender be a 
mixologist...I'll refer you all to the movie "Me, Myself and Irene"...

cheers
