Today we’d like to introduce you to Trey Walker.
Hi Trey, we’re thrilled to have a chance to learn your story today. So, before we get into specifics, maybe you can briefly walk us through how you got to where you are today?
T.A.G Team Mixologists started five years ago off a wing and a prayer. T.A.G “The Alcohol Guy” was created initially by three individuals working at a local restaurant. Although I was teaching elementary school at the time, I created and developed a true love for bartending and mixology. All the while, during the licensing and strenuous building of the brand the A and G fell off and “The Alcohol Guy” was created just 30 minutes before our first event. I fell in love with the name and have been growing and improving my skillset each and everyday.
T.A.G Team Mixologists now provides services for weddings, anniversaries, parties, corporate functions, bachelor and bachelorette parties and many more. We also provide signature mixed cocktails of all sizes and offer classes for aspiring bartenders and mixologists.
We all face challenges, but looking back would you describe it as a relatively smooth road?
While transitioning from a teacher to bartender to business owner, there have been obstacles and lessons that have made me stronger and better. Some of the struggles I have encountered include difficult clients, financial setbacks, staffing issues, and trying to navigate a business through a global pandemic. I have excepted these challenges and turned them into stepping stones. As I continue to advance my business, I am consistently improving my practices.
Appreciate you sharing that. What should we know about T.A.G Team Mixologists?
T.A.G Team Mixologists is a bartending and mixology company that specializes in cocktails that cater to a client’s personalized themes, colors, or flavor ideas. In addition to creating the cocktails, we also teach mixing classes, bartend special events, host sip & shakes, door to door service, and do restaurant bar setup/clean-up.

Do you have recommendations for books, apps, blogs, etc?
I get inspiration from food lifestyle brands, visiting bars &restaurants, fresh fruits & vegetables, traveling, and some of our favorite desserts.
