Camper English a Finalist for Best Writer at Tales of the Cocktail Spirited Awards 2015
June 17, 2015
Your host here at Alcademics, Camper English, is once again up for the Best Cocktails & Spirits Writer award at Tales of the Cocktail in New Orleans this July. I won this award in 2011 and have been nominated a few times before and after.
My fellow finalists are:
- Dave Broom, whisky writer extraordinaire (also up for Best Spirits Book for The Whisky Manual)
- Jeffrey Morgenthaler, very occasional blogger and author of The Bar Book (also up for Best Book)
- Robert Simonson, New York Times cocktail writer and author of The Old Fashioned (also up for Best Book)
I'm thinking I should probably write a book one of these days.
Alcademics.com made the long list (top 10) for Best Publication but alas didn't make the final four. Those are:
Best Cocktail & Spirits Publication
Difford’s Guide
Liquor.com
Punch Drink
The Cocktail Lovers
The full list of finalists is here.
Anyway, if you love me at all you will keep your fingers crossed from now until mid-July when the winners are announced.
Congratulations Camper, the nomination is well deserved!

Dear Camper,
I like and enjoy your work, especially many of the indepth articles. I hope the judges do too although just being nominated is an honor and testimony in itself.
Regards, David.
