an entrepreneur and an artist walk into a bar ...
No joke – it happened.
That’s where they met Mikey. The rest, as they say, is history.
WHY BLEND IN WHEN YOU CAN STAND OUT ...
For us, the growth in interest in craft spirits stimulated our imaginations - what if we could produce the perfect range of mixers that would complement the spirit, add an exciting dimension to cocktails and can also be equally delicious on their own?

THE ART OF MIXING
We’re proud of the fact we’ve taken our idea from concept to creation, resulting in our ever-growing range of Artisan Drinks. Made with 100% natural ingredients and offering unique flavour combinations, Mikey has developed a range that truly complement craft spirits rather than drowning them in sugar or artificial ingredients. We start with the spirit in mind, carefully crafting our range to ensure we partner beautifully.
When this is combined with Al’s outstanding illustrations, each with their own story of where the art was created, you can see the artisan spirit behind this very different type of mixer drink! We want to ensure we stay true to our ethos and our range certainly does that!
OUR ETHOS
Artisan celebrates uniqueness. This is represented in our colours, our flavours and our team, as well as in supporting and celebrating all art forms, including art students. Without those who dare to think outside the box, you wouldn’t see the innovation or exciting developments you see in the Arts.
And this is what we bring to the world of drinks – An artisanal view. Join us in taking that first step into unchartered waters.
ART ON THE INSIDE
Mikey has developed each Artisan recipe using only the finest natural ingredients and unique flavour combinations to elevate craft spirits to the next level when mixed together.
You can see where we’re coming from. We want to offer the best, created out of the best ingredients, both in regards to what’s in and on the bottles
FOR COLOURFUL FREE SPIRITS
ART ON THE OUTSIDE
Our ethos shines through in our unique range of tonics and mixers. With craft quality on the inside and out, the Artisan Labels feature the iconic images of internationally acclaimed artist Alan Walsh.
He expertly combines bold colours with clean, minimal strokes to capture the spirit & elegance of each character, helping bring Mikey’s creations to life.
