Lamech Prem Lenkalpally
Recipient of Asia's Excellence Mixologist Award 2024

I am Lamech Prem Lenkalpally, a mixologist with a passion for crafting unique and unforgettable experiences through the art of cocktails. My journey in this vibrant industry began in 2013, when I took my first steps into the world of mixology, studying at Cocktails and Dreams. This foundation became the springboard for my career, igniting a spark that has driven me to constantly learn, innovate, and grow.

Throughout this journey, I have been fortunate to have incredible mentors by my side. Mr. Ravi Maurya and Mr. Deepesh have been pillars of support and guidance, pushing me to work harder and pursue my dreams with purpose and determination. Their mentorship has been instrumental in helping me navigate challenges and chart a path toward success.

Over the years, my dedication has been recognized with prestigious accolades. In 2018, I was honored with the Best Mixologist Award at the Constance Lemuria Hotels in Seychelles, followed by the Best Mixologist Award at the Rebelz Competition in India. These milestones reflect not only my commitment to excellence but also the values instilled in me by my mentors and the experiences I’ve gained along the way.

This year, receiving Asia’s Excellence Mixologist Award 2024, powered by the World Research Congress, marks a pinnacle moment in my career. This award is more than a personal achievement—it is a tribute to everyone who has believed in me, from my mentors Haku to my  Boss mr. anil and my team at Marquis Sky Lounge in Kuala Lumpur.

My journey has been guided by a simple yet powerful motto: “Always be positive and keep working hard; skill pays your bills.” It is this mindset that has carried me through challenges and motivated me to continually strive for greatness. As I look ahead, I remain committed to inspiring others and pushing the boundaries of mixology as both an art and a craft.
