Recent reviews of Mixology Party for Team-Building

  • 5/5 from Shaylan Meyer, attended Mar 2025: TJ was the best! We booked his class for our mom’s 60th birthday and everyone had a blast (including grandma!). TJ was very knowledgeable about mixology but was able to distill advice down to make even the least skilled amateur feel confident making a drink. The venue was also amazing - if I could give the experience a 6/5 stars I would!

Simple drinks, complex tastes.
As a lifelong storyteller with over a decade of bespoke bartending under his belt, TJ Fink (ie, @the.artisanal.alchemist) is an extroverted expert at building experiential events from the ground up. He "mixologizes" at private functions all over New York City, venn-diagramming the multiverse of glamorous gourmet food with the miniverse of tasty tonics; he's tended bar for princes, paupers, and everyone in between.
On the artisanal side of things, TJ is intensely passionate about crafting one-of-a-kind cocktails with his own bare hands. From an alchemical angle, he appreciates the increasingly complex chemistry behind these creative concoctions. (Not to mention the twisted histories behind them.) Long-story-long: he’s always learning something new behind the mahogany, and learning new things is his very favorite... well, thing.
When TJ’s not slinging drinks in the five boroughs, he can be found sipping Negronis in his living room and crafting Dr. Seussian poetry inside a tattered moleskin. Every tincture has a tale to tell, after all.
