And the winner is - Ganton Man at Shirt Bar Sydney #GantonMan!

Well the winner of the Ganton Man search was ___ ___ who is certainly a very well dressed young man but.. on the night we were all winners as Justin, Adam and Louka; and Ganton Founder Allan all put on a great Sydney event for Ganton, Australian Made for 40 years!!! It was all happening at Shirt Bar tucked away at 7 Sussex Lane behind the Victorian Terraces in Erskine St, under the new(ish) Westpac HQ building. Shirt Bar as you may have already guessed from the name is a shirt store and cafe/bar seamlessly (no-pun) rolled into one. These guys make shirts, coffee and food too but what they are big on is Whisky! As we were being entertained by 3 piece Blues outfit Tequila Twins; yes I know, it's getting confusing.. I was trying out the Australian Starward Malt Whisky, yes Australian and it was so good I had another!

However before too long, and without further ado.. Justin had grabbed the vintage microphone and we were under-way for the big announcement, our four finalists were lined up Allan Bolton, Chris Orr, Julian Kuo and the winner, Joris Cuesta! Instgram @justjorisofficial. Hands were shaking, congratulations given all round the 3 Tequila Twins resumed wailing the blues; and I'll let the pictures tell the rest of the story.
