Founded in 1999 and headquartered in Brooklyn, NY, Uncommon Goods offers remarkable designs by independent makers, and we do it with a positive impact on both people and our planet. We want to change the way business is conducted by making sustainability a part of every decision we make. As a certified B Corporation, we hold ourselves to a high standard of social responsibility. That means printing our catalog on recycled, FSC-certified paper, offering a starting wage that's 100% above the federal minimum, selling products that are fur/feather/leather-free, and donating over $2 million (so far) to our partner non-profits. In 2018, UncommonGoods was proud and honored to be named a Forbes Small Giant, an annual list celebrating 25 standout businesses that favor greatness over growth.

We start with the idea that, if ¾ of your drink is the mixer, then you should use the best. Our founders Charles and Tim went back to the history books to find the finest sources for our ingredients; since we put the lid on our first bottle of our Premium Indian Tonic Water in 2005, we haven’t wavered in this single-minded mission to bring quality, flavour and choice back to mixers. Our award-winning mixers are now available in 74 countries and proudly served in 9 of the world's top 10 restaurants.

In 1953, in Loretto, Ky., Bill Samuels, Sr., fulfilled his dream to create a handmade and delicious bourbon. He decided to make his whisky in small batches, using soft red winter wheat to enhance the softness and sweetness. He then rotated each barrel by hand for consistency and, finally, aged each barrel to taste. Bill Samuels, Sr., transformed bourbon from a "commodity" into a premium handmade spirit, and today Maker's Mark® continues to make its bourbon the same way. In recent years, Maker's Mark has introduced thoughtful, super-premium innovations to its portfolio, including Maker's Mark 46®, Maker's Mark® Cask Strength and Maker's Mark® Private Selection, the brand's first-ever custom barrel program.
