Judging the CWE Art Fair’s Pearl Vodka Art Cocktail Challenge

TOKY was a sponsor of this year’s CWE Art Fair and Taste, June 12, 13 and 14. On Saturday afternoon (way too early on a Saturday afternoon – as apparent from the photo below) Eric was asked to judge the “Pearl Vodka Art Cocktail Challenge”. He and the other judges sampled three cocktails, each one created by a different CWE establishment using (sponsor) Pearl vodka. The topper: Wild Flower’s champagne and vodka concoction. Yum.

The Fair drew tens of thousands of people in three days, the highest number of visitors ever.
