We present Antont Martoplyas and his signature cocktail recipe Barbados Cocktail. A blend of very old rum, sherry and kahlua. All garnished with rosemary and orange peel.

“My name is Anton Martoplyas. I am 36 years old and the father of three children. I am a bartender from Minsk, Belarus. I started my career in 2002, back when all of our customers would only drink Whisky and Coke. Over the last 4 years, I have been working in a cocktail bar called BarDuck, which has grown to be one of the most popular cocktail bars in Belarus. What is special about our bar is that we serve our cocktails in unusual glassware: our most popular drink, the “Evening Bath”, is served in a small bathtub along with rubber ducks. We also like to mix traditional and trendy cocktails. I take part in every bartender competition in Belarus: I even won the Bacardi Legacy Belarus 2017 and represented our country at the World Class Bartender Final 2018 in Berlin.”
