The Cocktail Cabinet
A working reference & inventory
The house ledger

What is in the cabinet,
and what it will make

A working database of the IBA official list together with the modern classics and vintage revivals that bars actually pour. Mark the bottles you own and the ledger keeps count of what is within reach — and of the single bottle that would open the most doors.

The official list

The IBA has published a standardised list since 1961 and revises it periodically; these are the specifications competitors are judged against. Everything else in this cabinet is house selection.

From the shelf as it stands

What you can pour tonight

Every recipe whose ingredients are already marked on your shelf, sorted by style. Below them, the drinks a single missing bottle stands between you and.

Nothing within reach yet

Mark the bottles you own and this page fills itself in. A gin, a sweet vermouth and a bottle of Campari alone will open a dozen recipes.
Nothing within reach matches those filters

Your shelf can still make plenty — the search or the base spirit is narrowing it to nothing.
