We’re Civil Pours. Nice to meet you.
In 2022, Civil Pours was born – a collection of ready-to-pour premium cocktails that are sustainably crafted using proprietary technology and techniques.
It all started in a cocktail-making class taught by Nick Kennedy. After a captivating session with two inspired students, an idea was concocted to innovate the cocktail space. Time passed, experiments were conducted, and perfect cocktails were crafted.

How we keep it greenUp for a taste of innovation?
With our innovative vacuum distillation process, we've revolutionized the art of distillation, ensuring that every sip of our cocktails embodies both vibrant quality and taste.
- We distill in a vacuum to lower the boiling point so we can distill at optimal growing temperatures for our fresh ingredients.
- Pure, fresh flavours are preserved rather than cooked away.
- Energy consumption and carbon footprint are reduced.
