How to Begin Thinking About Beverage Optimization
Product knowledge is the bedrock of every great beverage professional. You need:
Courses,
Mentorship,
High-quality restaurant experience
Combined with years of service, instincts needed to manage guests, regulars, and the nuances of service are built.
However, while there are endless ways to learn wine, spirits, and beer, there’s almost nothing that teaches how to run an efficient beverage program. The fastest path has been working in a restaurant that already does this well. That’s the challenge and the opportunity for the next generation of sommeliers, F&B directors, and restaurant operators.
Take it upon yourself to pay attention to the nuances of beverage using resources like ours, or find a business that already cares deeply to truly understand the power of beverage.
