180: Home Bar Basics with Miguel Buencamino, Holy City Handcraft (Charleston, SC)

I think that the classic Happy Hour at home is back. The folks that liked to hop on a barstool on after work are currently looking at their home bars with a new light, missing the camaraderie of bar cocktails but also looking to have a bit of a ritual -- even in uncertain times -- at the close of the workday, whatever that means, whether Zooming classrooms with kids or sharing spreadsheets with the staff. To help us learn more about how to begin, I tapped one of the best home bartenders I've ever met, Miguel Buencamino of Holy City Handcraft in Charleston, SC. He's worked with brands from Fernet Branca to Coopers Craft Bourbon to Patron Tequila to create beautiful, useful digital content that has cocktail enthusiasts clamoring for more, and he also knows how learning a little at a time can land you in some pretty wonderful (and delicious) places. So pull out a chilled glass and let's get to mixing.
