Max Hopewell-Arizmendi and Yuki Koyama founded Cafe Max in 2013 and transitioned the airy, European-flavored bistro to Bar Max in 2016. Now owner Marshall Smith is behind the bar, and the Denver native is offering a rainbow of possibilities that allow guests to design the custom cocktail of their wildest dreams. The Flavor Wheel and Flavor Deck help spark the imagination, introducing guests to Bar Max’s massive inventory of rare and esoteric spirits while allowing them to remove ingredients or taste profiles that they find unappealing.
