James Packer (chairman of Crown), Shane Warne and Joe Hachem recently launched Melbourne’s ultra-exclusive night spot – Club 23.

They came. They leased. And they’re in the process of conquering the Melbourne scene. Owen and Paul from the Collection Bar are also doing more that just serving up drinks, with their recently released range of bartender syrups set to hit bars soon.
I can’t remember the last time I heard mean-hearted gossip from a bartender. I’m starting to think that the men and women who hold forth from behind the stick are a breed unto themselves.

Getting straight into it, the locals seem to be wrapped with their latest addition and the venue is giving them a raft of tipples to taste while taking in the creatively cool interior. The wine list is pretty strong with some good tastes of local and international juice and the food is sure to keep you filled while you work your way through the cocktails and beers.
Australian Bartender magazine is proud to announce that Diageo’s Reserve has once again thrown its support behind what’s billed as Australia’s toughest bartending challenge with Ketel One vodka on board as the official sponsor of the Bartender of the Year Competition.
