Maxwell is an old friend who came to prominence with the drinks program he curated at Brooklyn's amazing Maison Premiere, winning James Beard awards, World's 50 Best Bars listing, and Tales of the Cocktail awards, to name but a few. (It is also, and to this day, a magnificent place for dinner or a cocktail).  He's also co-authored a cocktail book and created one of the first modern-era cocktail recipe apps. 

Maxwell recently finished working on a great project - more below - plus we'll take any opportunity for a chat and a drink here at the Philip Duff Show, so we got together in Brooklyn at the Ace Hotel. 

Maxwell's always been drawn to music and movies as well as mixology, and he's just helped produce "BAR" a documentary about the Beverage Alcohol Resource five-day residential spirits education course, originally created by a murderer's row of American liquor- and cocktail luminaries including F. Paul Pacult, Dave Wondrich, Doug Frost and Dale de Groff, to name but a few. The documentary, from KTF Films, follows several of the students preparing studying and being tested at what is one of the world's toughest spirits courses

The trailer is out now, and the documentary premiere at Cinequest Film Festival in March, hopefully followed by a tour that includes Bar Convent Brooklyn, Aspen Food & Wine and Tales of the Cocktail as well as the Tribeca Film Festival and others.

(PR friends: we’re only interested in having your client on if they can talk for a couple of hours about OTHER things besides their prepared speaking points or their new thing, whatever that is.
They need to be able to hang.
Oh, plus we don't edit, and we won’t supply prepared or sample questions, or listener or “reach” stats, either, and no, you can't sit in on the interview or Zoom.)
