You're listening to Bardtenders! In this episode of "The Mixing Glass", Danny Posey discusses the struggle and strategies for success in working in small U.S. markets. Danny also talks about ways to connect with other professionals in the hospitality industry to help grow your career and advance your education!
Danny Posey has been in the hospitality industry for 17. Danny started his journey in the industry working at a big corporate chain restaurant and since then has worked as a server, bartender, beverage director, manager, and training lead. Danny has always loved bartending and has recently been back behind the sticks making cocktails and pouring libations for guests in Rogers, Arkansas.

Danny has also entered many cocktail competitions thanks to our friends at Chilled Magazine; He hasn't placed yet, but he looks at these competitions as learning opportunities to fine-tune his skills and learn new techniques.

NW Arkansas is a small market, with limited networking and educational opportunities for the industry (for now…) so for the last two years Danny has been trying to attend every possible opportunity out of state (and even one international trip) he can find, including Bar & Restaurant Expo, BCB, Tales, Portland Cocktail Week, etc. Danny has also been working with Chilled Media to build an established Chilled 100 group in Arkansas to help connect people and grow their abilities as well as hoping to reignite a USBG chapter.
You can find Danny at Local Lime in Rogers, AR, a Baja-Cali mex concept that uses fresh, local ingredients both in the kitchen and behind the bar where Danny is the bar manager and runs the beverage program there. You can also find Danny on social media at @drinkwithdanny

The Mixing Glass | Heard House | Olivia Stewart & Oxbow Rum 1:02:11

1:02:11

Live from Fort Worth, Texas! The Bardtenders head to Fort Worth for the second annual Heard House to bring you live episodes with some amazing hospitality professionals. The Bardtenders had the chance to stay at the Heard House sponsored by Heard Card Game where bartenders from around the country came together to share their stories, gain access to education opportunities, and create some amazing memories along the way. Join us over the next several weeks as these bartenders share their experiences of their time in the hospitality industry! In this episode of The Mixing Glass - Olivia Stewart talks about what it was like growing up on a single estate rum distillery and sugar cane farm in Lousiana. Olivia also discusses sugar cane manufacturing technique, sugar cane varietals, and we even get to taste some of these amazing spirits! ---------- Olivia Stewart is President of Oxbow Rum Distillery, which her family started in Baton Rouge in 2016. They have owned and operated their Louisiana cane farm and sugar mill for five generations, which provides all their raw ingredients for producing their estate rums. Growing up on the farm instilled a passion for all things sugarcane––and eventually rum. After pursuing an art dealing career in New York, Olivia moved back home in 2020 to help turn the distillery around during the height of the pandemic. With the help of her husband as a distiller, they refined all processes and rebranded to Oxbow Rum Distillery in 2022. Their products have won multiple international awards, including Best White Rum at San Francisco International Spirits Competition. They ferment and distill every drop from either fresh-pressed cane juice or Grade A molasses, all sourced from the family estate 20 miles from the distillery. Olivia sees Oxbow Rum as an expression of the land and sugarcane that has been part of her family and the community for generations. ---------- Don't miss out on any of the action!
