THE WALTER COLLECTIVE IS ON A MISSION TO DISCOVER WHAT’S POSSIBLE WHEN WE PARTNER WITH FORWARD-THINKING DISTILLERS TO CREATE UNIQUE SPIRITS AND TOP-SHELF BARTENDERS MAKE MAGIC WITH THE FRUITS OF OUR LABOR. IF YOU ENJOY WHAT WE DO, YOU’RE PART OF OUR COLLECTIVE EFFORT.
GIN HAS BLOSSOMED.
Goodbye, juniper-bomb gins and watered-down Westerns. The Walter Collective Gin pays homage to tradition while offering a complex, smooth, citrus-and-spice experience that’s refreshingly new.
VODKA WITH FLAVOR.
Unique grains and artful distillation give The Walter Collective Vodka a distinctively rich, creamy, nutty flavor and feel — a proper antidote to the odorless, tasteless spirit we’ve been sold for far too long.
A SPIRIT WORTH SALUTING.
We’re proud as a peacoat to bring you this Navy-strength sibling of our supple, citrusy Walter’s Gin. With twice the Tuscan juniper, we’ve crafted a bold, 114-proof spirit that sails exceptionally smoothly.
HEY BARTENDER, MAKE ME SOMETHING NEW.

Meet the Walter who inspired the Collective.
A DREAM REKINDLED.
Walter Bade was an aspiring artist, jazz aficionado and cocktail lover. He was also a hardworking young World War II vet with a family to feed. We’re proud to reimagine the artistic collaboration Walter yearned for but never quite realized.
TWC. A COLLECTIVE EFFORT TO CREATE THE FINEST SPIRITS.
MATT MELAIK: THE NEW TRADITIONALIST.
Like his grandfather before him, The Walter Collective founder Matt Melaik is curious by nature. He wondered what’s possible when adventurous distillers and imaginative bartenders join forces to celebrate the art of craft distillation. And here we are.
