Nons Drinks is pleased to congratulate the winners of the 2009 Sortilège Cup Mixology Competition.  Simon Kaulback of Boneta won the Gentlemen’s Competition on Monday, November 23 2009; Danielle Tatarin of Designer Cocktail took the title at the Ladies’ event the following day.

The Competition, hosted by the BC Hospitality EXPO, was a great opportunity for local mixologists to display their originality and technical prowess.  Competitors created original cocktails that included at least ½ oz. of Sortilège Premium Canadian Maple Whisky, a blend of Canadian Whisky and Maple Syrup with a flavour reminiscent of maple toffee. The resulting cocktails were evaluated by a panel including two media judges, two Mixologist judges, and two head judges.

Danielle Tatarin won the women’s title with a cocktail called “Geisha’s Milk Punch”; Simon Kaulback’s “Centre Ville” was the judges’ choice for the top men’s cocktail.

Simon and Danielle will each be awarded a trip to Montreal in summer 2010 to visit the location where Sortilège is made.
