VIVA! Bar Tools are the latest brain child from award winning bartender, recognized mixologist and Liquid Revolutionist, Shawn Soole. Shawn is a natural pointing out how bar products can be made better and more functional, and over the past ten plus years he has come up with a number of improvements to existing tools of the trade. Many bar products in use today have changed little in the past hundred years or more. It only makes sense that the time has come to revamp and redesign the bartending basics.
"As I found more and more how well cocktails fit me behind the bar, I started on the quest to perfect the classics while still trying to advance ways to make cocktails. In doing so, I've read every cocktail book I could and I am constantly on the hunt for new ingredients, new methods and new styles to keep me at the cutting edge" ~Shawn Soole, Liquid Revolutionist
Given his passion for cocktails, the quest for the proper tools to make them is a given.
The VIVA! tag line says it all - "Mixology for the People!" The idea is to produce well designed, well thought out top quality bar products and supplies without the massive mark up applied to most other custom designs. This produces a highly functional product with the professional bartender in mind at a cost that doesn’t require you to chain it to the bar.
The current the VIVA! Product line by Liquid Revolutionist Shawn Soole includes the following:
VIVA! Stick muddler - The muddler designed to be more functional than the standard muddling stick, this oversized and aggressive tread muddler makes short work of limes or other fruits with hard rinds. This puts more drinks in your customers hands faster! Read more...
