Commenting on the occasion Jeremy Coulbeck, General Manager MONIN MEIA said, “We started MONIN Cup in the year 2010, and today it has grown to another level; we have got an incredible response by some of the young talent in the field of bartending. The Mumbai zonal round was thrilling as the judges had a tough time choosing the finalist considering each participant raised the bar of the competition.
