Colombia’s Yeferson Avila Wins Licor 43’s 2022 Bartenders & Baristas Challenge

Carajillo fans rejoice! Licor 43‘s latest installation of their Bartenders and Baristas Challenge has come and gone, crowning a new champion and offering up yet another mouthwatering way to combine espresso and the Spanish liqueur.

Taking place this year in Gran Canaria, Spain, the annual coffee mixology competition asks drink creators from around the world to come up with their best version of a beverage that combines Licor 43 and coffee. After an initial submission round, nine finalists representing Australia, Brazil, Colombia, Estonia, Germany, Mexico, Spain, the UK, and the United States were selected to make their drinks like for an expert panel of judges, including: Lynnette Marrero, the creator of the all-female bartending competition Speed Rack; Dutch Barista Champion Merijn Gijsbers, and 2021 Bartenders & Baristas Challenge winner Thalita Freire, whose passionfruit-based winning cocktail, the Tropicália, I can’t get out of my head.

After the dust had settled on October 20th, the competitor from Colombia, Yeferson Avila of Cardinal and Mar y Zielo in Cartagena, had taken the day with his winning beverage, the Armonía. Similar to the previous year’s winner, Avila leaned into the tropical incorporating pineapple and roasted coconut into this beverage to interplay with the espresso, Licor 43, and Amaro Montenegro he incorporated.

For his efforts, Avila takes home the grand prize of €3,000 to be used on professional courses or equipment as well as serving on the Global Jury for next year’s competition and participating as a guest bartender in international Licor 43 events in 2023.

As with previous years, Licor 43 has posted the recipes for all the Finalist’s cocktails, including Avila’s, which we are reprinting below for your salivatory enjoyment.
