Collezione drink 2026
DRAFTED DRINKS The draft cocktail project stems from the desire to develop
a modern and innovative beverage offering while maintaining a high
standard regarding the quality of the final product.
Distillery and Bar. Production and Cocktail Culture.
We have the Mediterranean within us.
And we put it into every product.
Russo 1899 is a family story that spans generations, rooted in Southern Italy and its culture of taste. The Mediterranean is not a place, but an identity: light, intensity, conviviality, authentic substance.
It is a way of living and creating.
Every recipe stems from this deep sense of belonging.
Citrus, herbs, warmth, character: elements that become a liquid language, recognizable and consistent over time.
Since 1899, we have been transforming a cultural heritage into products with soul, where tradition and contemporary vision meet naturally.
Ruggine was born in the heart of Bologna as a space dedicated to contemporary mixology and a culture of mindful drinking.
Since opening, the venue has stood out for its direct, identity-driven, and quality-oriented approach, becoming a point of reference for those seeking cocktails with personality and technical precision.
Ruggine’s drink philosophy is based on balance, structure, and true drinkability.
Every recipe is designed to work at the bar, in daily service, while maintaining character and consistency.
A concrete vision of the cocktail, built on experience and the constant pursuit of detail.
The Draft Collection
The Draft Collection was born from the meeting between a distillery with a structured production vision and a bar operation recognized for its identity in contemporary mixology. It is a project built through technical exchange, progressive development, and shared fine-tuning.
The recipes bear the signature of Ruggine. Every formula is defined through a study of balance, aromatic structure, intensity, and drinkability, with attention to real-world performance on tap and consistency in service. The taste is not just conceived: it is verified, measured, and refined.
Russo 1899 translates this sensory definition into a stable and replicable product, ensuring control over raw materials, precision in processes, standardization, and qualitative continuity. Each keg maintains aromatic integrity, flavor cleanliness, and consistency over time.
The Draft Collection is therefore a line in which:
- the stylistic vision originates at the bar counter
- the technical solidity originates at the distillery
- quality is verified on both fronts
- the cocktail's identity remains recognizable in every pour
A project that unites bar culture and production rigor, offering venues draft cocktails with signature style, structure, and reliability.
