For his award-winning turn, Down paid homage to the iconic Sydney Opera House, a landmark he passes on his commute to work at the acclaimed subterranean cocktail bar, Apollonia, in Sydney’s bayside The Rocks.
Jake Down from Apollonia, walked away with the inaugural Bombay Sapphire Stir Creativity Cocktail Competition trophy, $3000 prize money, a pin will be crafted of their winning cocktail and they have a trip to London and the home of Bombay Sapphire – the Bombay Sapphire Laverstoke Mill to look forward to.
“I love how [hospitality] is this beautiful combination of skill and art, science and passion. We are lucky to work in an industry that is based on compassion, empathy, and generosity – that a single smile can make someone’s night shows how truly powerful we really are.”
So, it’s nice to be able to report that the highly anticipated basement bar, Apollonia, is now open with Alissa Gabriel (of Mjolner and Kiss Kiss Bang Bang fame) in charge of the drinks and Alex Thorn in the role of Head Bartender.
