This week, we're kicking off our second chapter of The Master Blend - A Bartender Series. In collaboration with BERTOUX Brandy, the Bit by a Fox Podcast will host a series of interviews with some of America's most acclaimed and innovative bartenders. This second installment is a continuation of interviews that will have each bartender discuss their distinct style, biggest inspirations, and how they're making their mark on today's cocktail culture. Kicking off this second Master Blend series is Christopher Longoria, Beverage Director at the insanely popular restaurant, Che Fico in San Francisco. We talked poetry, California, hip hop, his 20 year evolution behind the bar, and discovering, as an artist and as a bartender, less is more.

1 oz Smoked Strawberry Juice*
