2021 Initiatives
Building on community-led projects already inspired by previous years, Ketel One once again challenged bartenders to participate as part of Diageo Reserve's World Class competition.
The following finalists were all asked to use the breadth of their creativity and a flair to use mindfully sourced ingredients to create an inspired Ketel One Vodka serve that impacts people, businesses, or a cause in their community through a bartender-led initiative.
As you can see from the breadth of these initiatives, the challenge has inspired the creation of a wide range of projects with a positive impact on communities around the world but the one that stood out most for the judges was Evan Stroeve and his Martini Syndicate.
