DEL.ICIO.USMixing it up with the 2 Live Stews

Les freres Stewart were high above the streets of Midtown this week, mixing it up with a bunch of Atlanta bartenders.
The occasion was an exclusive Crown Royal event for the folks who man the bars at Atlanta restaurants and nightclubs. Under the tutelage of mixmaster Steven Kowalczuk, who makes it happen at Room at Twelve and Trois, guests tried their hand at creating whiskey-based libations.
“We’re from the old school. Our old man used to keep one of these in the trunk,” joked Doug Stewart, hefting a commemorative case of Crown Royal and assorted bar accoutrements.
Crown Royal whiskey master Kevin Mulcahy gave the crowd a brief history of the venerable brand, and led a tasting. Here’s an important tip we picked up: to “nose” a glass of whiskey, hold it under your chin but breathe in from your mouth. Don’t plant your nose in the glass and sniff like it’s a glass of red wine - unless you’ve got serious sinus troubles.
Here are a few of the folks who turned out for the event.
