This time around, we catch up with Dan Marlowe, who’s a really talented bartender currently heading up the brand new tavern program at BlueDyer Distilling Co.

In this spirited conversation, some of the topics we discuss include:

• How Dan worked his way through the bartending ranks to take the helm at the brand new tavern program at the BlueDyer Distillery.
• Why a “barkeep” is a bit different than a “bartender”
• The merits of a fancy handcrafted rum & coke and when it’s appropriate to call it a Cuba Libre.
• How Dan thinks about things like hospitality, and how he has developed his personal brand of cocktails and bartending
• What to bring when you’re grabbing drinks with Theodore Roosevelt
• And much, much more.
