About your instructors
Benji and Karine are UK Ambassadors for Patron Tequila in the UK. Day to day their jobs are to enlighten, inspire and educate people in and out of bars about the wonderful world of Tequila and Patron brand.
About Benji: Having previously worked every position in Reading’s bars and restaurants, Benji has spent the last 3 of his 10 year strong hospitality career perfecting his knowledge on Tequila as a category with a special focus on all things Patrón. His special talents include creating Patron drinks that are aesthetically awe-inspiring (great for everyone in this class!) and hitting a one-handed topspin backhand, clocking over 7000 rpm, at his local tennis court.
About Karine: Originally from France, Karine relocated to London after a long stay in Australia. Here she joined the London Cocktail Club group. From running bars in Melbourne, Karine wanted to learn all facets of the business and started at the bottom. However her progression was swift, from bar back to waitress and then General Manager. During her tenure LCC was nominated for several awards including the prestigious Tales of the Cocktail.
