Warren has spent over three decades immersed in the bar and nightclub industry, building a wealth of experience behind the bar. He could be found crafting cocktails and serving guests at some of Seattle’s most vibrant bars and nightclubs. With a deep passion for fine spirits and creative cocktails, Warren has spent countless nights experimenting with flavors, dreaming up innovative recipes, and refining his craft to bring new, exciting drinks to life.
His dedication to the art of mixology led him to formal training at both the Artisan Craft Distilling Institute and the Seattle Distilling Institute, where he honed his knowledge and skills in distillation and spirits production. Warren later became one of the owner-distillers at 3 Howls Distillery, where he focused on creating American Single Malt whiskey. Today, he continues to share his love of cocktails by crafting custom creations and bartending for private events and gatherings in the Seattle area.
An avid traveler, Warren finds endless inspiration at spirited events and festivals featured in Thirste, where he connects with other enthusiasts and bartenders to learn about the latest trends and innovative cocktail concepts from around the world. When exploring a new city, he actively seeks out local distilleries to discover unique spirits, uncovering new flavors and ingredients to incorporate into his imaginative cocktail creations.
For Warren, the journey of mixology is a constant exploration—a blend of creativity, curiosity, and the joy of sharing exceptional drinks with others. Whether he’s behind the bar or attending spirited gatherings, he’s always on the lookout for new trends and exciting ingredients to elevate the cocktail experience.
