Advanced Bartending

The field of bartending has evolved, with constant new trends and techniques taking over the market.

Our bar professional training course helps you to master the skills you need to succeed, including the creation of sophisticated drinks which have that ‘wow factor’ that customers can’t quite put their finger on. It’s about considering every part of the bartender training process, from offering excellent customer service to putting heart and soul into the way cocktails are mixed, prepared, poured and presented.

Customers don’t just notice the difference between a good and a bad drink, but the service they receive too.

A great weeklong course in mixology, good balance between theory and practical and a lot of fun. Will definitely be doing level 2 with them. Cannot recommend it highly enough!

Great course, an abundance of information was given and Manny was high energy and put in a lot of effort throughout. High expectations were asked of the students to learn the level of high standards and quality in the industry. Ideally I'd prefer the course to be 1 or 2 days longer to fully digest all the information and there be more time to practise making and practise our tasting skills. However otherwise I would definitely recommend the course to others

What an amazing course, I’ve never learnt so much in such a short amount of time.I hadn’t had any bartending experience prior, and a week later am already feeling comfortable enough being behind a real bar with customers.It’s an intensive course, you get as much out of it as you put in. You don’t need month long courses, you learn everything you need to in a week.Highly recommend.

Manny has a wealth of experience and knowledge which he shares with the participants. As an absolute beginner I had to work hard but it was worth it as I now have a great foundation to build on. If you want a career in mixology or improve your skills I would recommend this course.

This mixology course is very well structured and sheds a lot of light on the techniques that go into making cocktails at a professional bar environment. It is the perfect combination of seriousness and fun at the same time! I learned a lot and would highly recommend to anyone wanting to join this field of work or even open their own bar!Manny is a great teacher, always giving that extra bit of effort and taking time to answer questions thoroughly. He’s also fun spirited and had amazing energy!

Best mixology/bartending course you can possibly take in 5 days. Manny is passionate and treats the craft like an artform. If you apply yourself, you will learn lots. Highly recommend to any aspiring bartenders!

I chose the 1 week intense course and I must say Manny was such a great instructor. He was very patient and tailors the course according to each persons requirement. He was super friendly and helpful with each of our queries. I would highly definitely recommend this course with Manny.

If you are someone like me who has a passion for making cocktails, I highly recommend taking this course....Outside of my degree as a university student, I took time this spring to explore and develop my new profound love for mixology.Today, I was awarded the International Mixology diploma from the Spirit Lab London Bartending Academy, approved by the Wine & Spirit Education Trust recognized in more than 70 countries worldwide.Despite my background, I extend my utmost gratitude to director Emanuele Mancini for accommodating me by being a demanding but fair mixology teacher challenging my skills both on and off the bar.Receiving this acknowledgment, meant more than the completion of a 5-day intensive spirit training course at the heart of the Marylebone district in London; it was a milestone in my ability to remain calm under pressure and build the confidence to face things outside of my comfort zone.If you are someone like me who is unsure due to inexperience, I can tell you that my 5-day journey to cocktail-making started in a foreign place to a young professional who can confidently push out multiple spirits at a high level.

I am so glad I chose the Spirit Lab to fulfil a dream of perfecting my skills, understanding and learning more about the art and history of cocktail making with Emanuele Mancini. It was a 5 day intensive course with a small group.Emanuele is clearly passionate about the industry and this really shows as he picks up on every detail and perfects you along the way. He is truly an inspiration and a leader in this industry. I loved his style of teaching and this made me more determined to succeed. I highly recommend the Spirit Lab as I am now more confident in making cocktails and will continue to ensure I take every opportunity to put my new skills to the test.Thank you Emanuele

For anyone who is just interested in cocktails or inexperienced beginner who tries to get into the industry but keep getting rejected, I 100% recommend this course. Manny is such a patient, fun, engaging and experienced teacher! The classes follows theory + practice structure. I definitely love this methodology ( imagine when you go to the bar and you start to talk smart ) I’ve become more confident behind the bar but definitely need to put more effort in remembering the cocktail ingredients _(:зゝ∠)_Bonus part of this course: you got to taste so many stunning cocktails!!
