Nordic Bartender of the Year 2025
Title sponsor and glassware partner for the regional finals in Copenhagen, Stockholm and Oslo.

Scandic Bar started behind the stick — and we've never really left. We back the bartender community with sponsorships, competitions, workshops and quiet, long-term partnerships with the bars and people that move the craft forward.
We've spent forty years quietly building relationships with the bartender community across Scandinavia and Europe. It's not a campaign — it's the company. Below are the pillars of what "We Support Bartenders" actually means in 2026.
We sponsor regional and national bartender competitions across the Nordics with glassware, tools and prize packages.
Long-term partnerships with the bars our products live in — Ruby, Lidkoeb, Tjoget and many more.
Free workshops with bar schools and hospitality programmes — tool care, glassware selection, back-bar setup.
We back guest shifts, pop-ups and bartender meet-ups across Europe — from Copenhagen to Berlin.
We support bartender communities, queer-led collectives, hospitality mental-health initiatives and grass-roots events.
Starter-kit discounts for early-career bartenders and graduates opening their first venues.
Coffee programmes, hotel teams, restaurant openings — the whole hospitality industry is family.
Active member of regional hospitality and trade-fair networks. We show up, we listen, we contribute.

Title sponsor and glassware partner for the regional finals in Copenhagen, Stockholm and Oslo.

Two-day workshop with hospitality students — tool care, glassware selection and service flow.

We back a series of guest shifts across Frankfurt during Ambiente week every year.
Bartenders, bar managers and hotel teams across the Nordics and Europe live with our tools every shift. Their feedback is how the range gets better.
"The shakers feel right in the hand from the first shift — balanced, quiet, and they survive a full Friday service without complaint."

Head bartender · Ruby, Copenhagen
"We replaced our entire glass programme with Scandic Bar last spring. Breakage is down, our guests notice the weight, and re-orders ship within days."
Sofia Lindqvist
Bar manager · Tjoget, Stockholm
"Direct from bartenders, to bartenders — it really shows. The toolkit is the first one I haven't had to modify in twenty years behind a stick."
Henrik Mølgaard
Bar director · Lidkoeb, Copenhagen
