Brief

Background/ Considerations

Our story
An entrepreneur and an artist walk into a bar... No joke, it happened. That’s where they met top mixologist Mikey Enright. The rest, as they say, is history. Our team is an eclectic mix of experts within their field, united by a passionate pursuit of excellence, a bias to challenge the status quo and drive to make ‘stuff’ happen.
Artisan offers craft quality inside and out with stylish designs created by international artist Alan Walsh and outstanding recipes expertly developed by Mikey Enright, top Australian bar owner and winner of Australia’s best Gin Bar three years running. After all who better to create mixers that an expert in craft spirits?
The team have created four unique premium mixers including: Classic London Tonic, Skinny London Tonic, Violet Blossom Tonic and Barrel Smoked Cola. Produced locally in the UK and Australia, each Artisan recipe is made with the finest natural ingredients.
We believe that there’s a real opportunity to create a truly premium mixer range by combining the skills of a spirits expert to create amazing Artisan recipes and an artist to bring style, colour and character to every bottle.
