Collectif 1806 is an international initiative inspired by the May 13, 1806 book, The Balance and Columbian Repository, where the word 'cocktail' first appears. While it seems simple, those original cocktails were based on the profound idea that various fiery spirits could be tempered into something greater. Building on that inspiration, Collectif 1806 believes that the intentional mixing of collective knowledge and talent should be shared to help us all evolve and create. We are a collective of thirsty revivalists and thinkers outside of the glass that seek to inspire and support those who love mixing drinks and honoring our craft every day.
