Ben (cocktail mastermind) is a foodservice industry veteran. From bartending under the beloved and renowned Jerry Slater to launching bar programs at James Beard award nominated Staplehouse and Atlanta's beloved Likewise, Ben's passion, talent, expertise and sheer depth of knowledge in cocktail culture (and a slew of other random facts) is poured into every cocktail kit, experience and effort that comes from this Commons and we're all better because of it.

Maddie (product and marketing engine) is the co-founder of Atlanta's favorite digital marketing agency, Marketwake. After many years (and 4 kids) of waiting up for Ben to get home from the bar at 3am, she decided there had to be another way. With her passion for building and launching brands, she purchased cocktailcommos.com, told Ben she had a plan, and has never looked back. 

Together, they have evolved the shop from selling curated vintage & modern glassware, to delivering homemade happy hours and now to providing Commoners everywhere the ability to make quality cocktails at home through cocktail kit memberships... What's next? You'll just have to stick around and see.
