Recently, at the invitation of Sergei Khabayev, Chairman of the Russian Cocktail Bartenders Association, the Russian Merlin Company brought ZhangYu's brandy and wine products to the 28th Russian Cocktail Bartender Championship held in Moscow.

Starting in February and March of each year, the competition is held in various regions of Russia, and the regional champions are selected to participate in the annual finals.
On the day of the competition, in addition to the outstanding bartenders from 46 russian states participating in the competition, there were also more than 5,000 Russian cocktail professionals such as well-known people and judging teams in the industry, as well as russian cocktail mixologists and world champions in previous years.
The final bartender Андреев Евгений won the competition. It is worth mentioning that on the day of the competition, АндреевЕвгений concocted a cocktail based on Chinese brandy - Zhang Yuzhen Five-Star Gold Award brandy, "Red Face Drunk", which won the first place with this wine full of oriental flavor. Zhang Yu's five-star gold award brandy was also rated as the "most classic cocktail base wine" of this competition by the organizing committee.
This cocktail made of Chinese brandy as the main ingredient is very suitable for Chinese red in color, and the decorative part is made of orange peel as the main "flower hairpin", full of oriental characteristics. Zhang Yu's five-star brandy also brings a pleasant floral and fruity aroma to this cocktail, elegant aging aroma, and the smell is intoxicating.
On the same day, Zhang Yu treasured the exquisite and unique bottle design of the five-star gold medal brandy, and also circled a wave of powder at the championship site.
In addition, the competition also featured a wine tasting session. As a professional bartender, in addition to being familiar with spirits, you also need to have a certain understanding of wine. On the day of the competition, the contestants took Zhang Yu Xie Baina, a red wine from China, as the test question, while explaining the relevant knowledge of red wine, while demonstrating the etiquette of serving wine.
