How It Started

It all started with a simple idea: the cocktail shaker should be better. Founder Adam Craft, a mixology enthusiast, grew tired of leaky, cumbersome bar tools. So, he set out on a two-year journey to reimagine the classic cocktail shaker.

Adam’s obsession to reinvent the standard cocktail shaker resulted in 2 years of prototyping, testing and iterating until he perfected the shaker design.

How It's Going

In 2019, he launched his flagship design, the Elevated Craft® Hybrid Cocktail Shaker and raised more than $2.5M from 29,000 enthusiastic crowdfunding backers to bring the product to life.

Today, our studio in Scottsdale is more than just a workspace; it’s a mashup of a sleek design studio and a cozy speakeasy. It's where creativity flows and new ideas for elevating the bar experience are born.

GRAB A STOOL & MEET THE CREW

The Elevated Craft 'Crew'

Elevated Craft® would not exist without the support of our loyal customers and fans. Affectionately referred to as the “Crew,” this global community of cocktail explorers share an infectious passion for elevating their craft. Through our private Facebook group, we get to go behind their bars and join them on their cocktail journey. What started as a small fan base has rapidly become a hub for home bar exploration, a knowledge base for recipes and reviews, and a one-of-a-kind community fueled by curiosity and adventure.
