We had a custom mixology class with Cory and it was amazing! I am a cocktail nerd and Cory showed me so many new tips and tricks; not to mention the best Sazerac I've ever had!! Cory is very knowledgable, easygoing, and has a great sense of humor. I highly recommend taking one of his classes or set up your own custom class! Thank you Cory!
