"He’s the second D.C.-based bartender to make it this far in the 13-year-old contest. Last year, French Scotty Marshall — then-bartender at U Street bar Five to One — won nationals and advanced the global finals." - Tierney Plumb
"Washington City Paper reports that not-quite-1-year-old bar Five to One has closed at its current location. Founder Trevor Frye, who created drink lists based on music and performers featured at the neighboring 9:30 Club, says he hopes to relocate the bar elsewhere. Frye provided the following comment to Eater: "Five to One will not be reopening at the 903 U St location. While a very difficult decision for me, sometimes in this industry when you peel back certain layers, you need to make decisions based on business acumen and not the passion we put in to it day in and day out. We are so thankful for all of the people who supported us over the course of the year and the neighborhood for embracing us the way it did. My team created something truly special within those walls and we hope to recapture that when the bar lands at its new home." - Warren Rojas
"Five to One is a year-old bar where bartender French Scotty Marshall works. It is known for serving replicas of his winning cocktail, Coki Beach, which is made with Bacardi Gran Reserva Ocho rum, toasted coconut syrup, lime juice, and allspice dram." - Tierney Plumb
