With the greatest success of “Chivas Masters Thailand” when the first winner of the campaign won the World Bartender Championship Competition, Chivas Regal brings back the most awaited Chivas Masters Thailand 2019, the 6th year campaign searching for distinctive and creative bartenders to attend the international competition. The competitors must use Chivas Regal as core bases of their unique drink recipes and their Original Chivas Cocktails must represent the competitors’ own characters. The blends from Chivas Regal and other mixers describe who they are, what drives them and what make them proud.

The event was full of Thailand top talented bartenders, gathered to celebrate and join the Chivas Masters campaign. Chivas Regal has prepared the signature welcome drink “12 House Punch,” the refreshing and fruity cocktail with Chivas Regal 12 mixed with apple and lemonade juice, garnished with sliced green and red apple.
Highlight of the event was when Mr. Arron Grendon and Mr. Kentaro Wada showed their signature drink from the final round of Chivas Masters Global Final 2018. The drinks were uniquely designed by mixing Thainess to their flavors. Both cocktails are inspired by the atmosphere of Thailand. The first one is from Bangkok Train Night Market, Ratchada, hub of local food and drinks with cozy and unique atmosphere. It’s a must-visit place for international tourists. “Ratchada”, a cocktail named after the popular night market, is a blend from spiced tea syrup made with very famous Thai tea mixed with Chivas Extra for more smoothness. Apart from the delicious flavor of Thai tea, this drink is specially made in Teh Tarik Style. The other special cocktail is called “Maya Bay,” a cocktail named after a beautiful island in the Southern part of Thailand, made with Chivas Regal 12 and coconut syrup, lychee, lemongrass and soda. The refreshing cocktail represents the feeling of chilling on the tropical island.
Mr. Quentin Job. Managing Director of Pernod Ricard (Thailand) said, “For the last 5 years Chivas Regal has noticed the importance of the bartender community in Thailand. We have supported the community by creating the Chivas Masters campaign under Chivas’ core values; success, generosity and brotherhood. As the representative of Chivas Regal Thailand, we are very excited to invite all the bartenders to join Chivas Masters, to show creativity and have an opportunity to enter a global competition. I’m proud to say that bartenders from Thailand are very talented and able to easily compete with other countries, with the special local ingredients I believe we could create a unique cocktail that could compete on a global stage.
“I’m so pleased and honored to talk and share my experience from last year competition in London. Chivas Masters is a big community that connected bartenders all over the world. I get to meet many talented bartenders and become friends with them. The key to my success is to keep consistently practicing what I love. I wish I can inspire new generation bartenders who have dreams and are ready to take challenges, find new opportunities and further their dreams at the international level.” said Mr. Arron Grendon.
