We're raising a glass to New York's finest bars by getting the inside scoop from the champions serving our drinks
This year, we toasted the efforts of drink-slingers from coast-to-coast with the 2018 Time Out Bar Awards. To celebrate the work of the country's best bartenders, we enlisted the help of industry experts as well as our critics, who have sipped their way across their cities to discover the best places for you to drink.
Helping us crown the best of the best—in categories from best dive to best cocktail to overall most amazing bar in the city—is our presenting partner, William Grant & Sons, whose portfolio of cocktail-fueling spirits is second-to-none. Here, we team up with their expert brand ambassadors for a series of videos investigating what it's like being a bartender in New York.
