The work of bartenders is inseparable from wine, and the mastery of wine directly determines the development of the work. As a bartender, you should master the origin, physical characteristics, taste characteristics, production technology, product name and drinking method of various wines, and be able to distinguish the quality and year of wines.
In addition, guests need different desserts and what kind of wine to match, and the bartender needs to give reasonable recommendations. Finally, because cocktails are all composed of a base wine with different accessories, what kind of physical and chemical effects and taste differences will be produced by wine and different accessories, which is the basis for bartenders to create new wine.

In addition, the action and posture of wine mixing will also affect the quality and taste of wine. The methods of cleaning, cleaning and disinfection of wine utensils after mixing are also necessary for bartenders.
Understand the customs behind wine
A kind of wine represents the living customs of the residents in the wine producing area. Guests from different places have different dietary customs, religious beliefs and habits.

Secondly, the bar guests often have many foreigners and should know some foreign languages.
Good temperament
Bartenders have certain requirements for height and appearance, and of course they don't want to look as beautiful as idol stars.
