"Based on the reputation from what I heard from current employees the teamwork is fantastic and turnover is low. In addition, working for you would allow me to improve my knowledge of spirits and cordials. I know your downtown location is the premier place to enjoy a cordial or specialty coffee, and I am excited at the possibility of being a part of that experience."
