Position Overview

Tierra Distilling Co. is seeking a skilled and hospitality-driven Bartender to join our Tasting Room team. We are looking for more than just a drink-maker; we are looking for a brand ambassador who can provide an educational, high-end experience for our guests.

  • Spirits Education: Engage guests by explaining our distillation process, the profiles of our spirits, and the stories behind our ingredients.

  • Efficiency: Maintain a fast, organized, and clean workspace even during peak service hours. Manage drink tickets with speed without sacrificing quality.

Bar Operations & Maintenance

  • Inventory Oversight: Assist the Tasting Room Lead in tracking liquor levels, rotating stock, and restocking bar supplies as needed.

  • Cleanliness: Maintain the bar top, back bar, and equipment to health code standards. Execute opening/closing side-work thoroughly and consistently.

Guest Experience & Brand Representation

  • Hospitality: Act as a face of the brand. Provide a warm, welcoming environment and anticipate guest needs before they arise.

  • Atmosphere: Help maintain the "supper club" vibe by monitoring music volume, lighting, and guest flow.

  • Professionalism: Demonstrate a high level of professionalism in appearance, conduct, and communication at all times.

Qualifications

  • Experience: 2+ years of experience in a high-volume, craft-focused cocktail bar or upscale lounge (preferred).

  • Technical Skill: Solid understanding of classic cocktail structures, modern mixology techniques, and professional bar tools.

  • Passion: A genuine interest in the spirits industry, distillation, and craft culture.
