Congratulations to our District of Columbia community leaders, our City Council Members (in particular Councilmember David Catania), Lawmakers and D.C. Board of Elections and Ethics for the foresight and conviction to support keeping our Nation’s Capital a beacon of global human rights by upholding equal rights under the law and paving the way to permit same sex couples to marry. The legislation was overwhelmingly passed by the elected Council and signed by the Mayor in December.  This legislation allows Washington D.C. to join the great capitals of our hemisphere such as Ottawa and Mexico City as leaders in common for respect and appreciation for Human Rights.

Participating Bartenders are still signing up for this event.

Audience Participants may reserve their Judging spots for $15 which will include complimentary hors d'oeuvres from 6:00 PM to 8:00 PM and a tasting of all the featured Martinis.

“The competition promises to be very heated with the most creative martinis served in town, where else will one have the opportunity to taste the creations of up to 10 Bartenders vying for the grand prize”  Comments Kamran Vakili, General Manger of the Beacon Bar & Grill.  “Pride and a good prize make it worth-while for participating Bartenders to produce the finest product in order to make this an experience for those who love indulging in Martinis.  This is a fitting event in view of the popularity our own Martini Sky-Bar enjoys, during season primarily due to the creativity of our resident bartender” continues Kamran.

We are pleased to have Absolute Vodka be a co-sponsor of this event.
