History.
1806
The earliest recorded use of the word ‘Cocktail’ was
made in a New York newspaper, The Balance and
Columbian Repository, which responded to a reader
enquiry stating “Cocktail is a stimulating liquor
composed of spirit of any kind, sugar, water, bitters
— it is vulgarly called a bitter sling and is supposed
to be an excellent engineering potion, in as much as it
renders the heart stout and bold, at the same time that
it fuddles the head...a person having swallowed a glass
of it, is ready to swallow anything else.”
1839
Samuel Cunard establishes the British North American
Royal Mail Steam Navigation Company – known as
Cunard Line – principally to carry the Royal Mail to
Canada and the United States of America.
1840
Samuel Cunard’s first ship, the 1,154-ton paddle
steamer Britannia leaves Liverpool, England, bound for
Halifax, Nova Scotia, on the first Transatlantic service.
1859
Samuel Cunard was made a Baronet in recognition
of the company’s service in the Crimean War.
1912
Carpathia is the first ship
on the scene and rescues
all survivors from the
White Star Liner Titanic
on that tragic April night.
1922
Laconia is the first passenger ship to offer a
circumnavigation of the globe – the first World Cruise.
1930
The Savoy Cocktail Book is the first published
Cocktail recipe book. It was compiled and
annotated by Harry Craddock.
1933
The United Kingdom Bartender’s Guild (UKBG) is created.
1934
Queen Mary is launched in Clydebank, Scotland,
by Her Majesty Queen Mary. The first merchant vessel
to be named by a member of The Royal Family.
1938
Queen Elizabeth is
launched in Clydebank,
Scotland, by Her Majesty
Queen Elizabeth in the
presence of Their Royal Highnesses Princess Elizabeth
and Princess Margaret.
1939
Queen Mary and Queen Elizabeth requisitioned by
the British Government to act as Troop Ships, carrying
over 1.5 million Troops around the world. Sir Winston
Churchill paying tribute at the end of World War II stated
that the Cunard Queens had shortened the war in
Europe by at least a year.
1947
The two Cunard Queens
enter regular
Transatlantic service.
1940s
In the late 1940s the use of Bitters in Martinis
disappeared, and Vermouth became less important as
an ingredient.
1960s
An insurgence of spirits
with mixers, beers and wine
appreciation pushes the
traditional Martini to one side.
1967
Queen Elizabeth 2 is launched in Clydebank,
Scotland, by Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II in the
presence of His Royal Highness The Duke of Edinburgh
and Her Royal Highness Princess Margaret.
“Your ship is loaded, take her; speed
is nothing, follow your own road, deliver
her safe, bring her back safe - safety
is all that is required.”
Samuel Cunard’s first order to his Masters.
1969
Queen Elizabeth 2, or QE2 as
she becomes affectionately
known, enters service.
1980s
The re-discovery of the Martini gained momentum and
it was now perceived as a cocktail icon. The 1980s was
the period when Bartenders became known as
Mixologists, and cocktails as Martinis.
1990s
Towards the end of the 1990s we see a
wealth of new cocktails being developed
with the Martini once again evolving into
what seemed to be limitless flavours and
igniting a new trend in bars across the world.
2000
Cunard places an order for the largest ocean liner ever to
be built. She will not only be the largest at 151,400 tons, but
the longest, tallest and most expensive. Her name – Queen
Mary 2.
2004
12 January, Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II names
Queen Mary 2 in Southampton, the ship’s home port.
2006
Rum manufacturers start positioning
themselves against the seemingly
unstoppable Martini, and re-introduce the
Mojito and Caipirinha which quickly gain
a following and flavours start entering this
traditional favourite.
2007
Cunard takes delivery of Queen Victoria, a new 90,000-ton
liner from builder Fincantieri in Venice, Italy, in November.
The ship is named in Southampton on 10 December by Her
Royal Highness The Duchess of Cornwall in the presence of
His Royal Highness The Prince of Wales.
2008
QE2 leaves the Cunard fleet after over 39 years of service.
2010
Queen Elizabeth is named by
Her Majesty The Queen in October 2010.
2012
Cunard launches Weddings on board with the first wedding
taking place at sea on Queen Mary 2 mid-Transatlantic
in April 2012. Cunard salutes Her Majesty The Queen’s
Diamond Jubilee when Queen Mary 2, Queen Elizabeth and
Queen Victoria meet in Southampton during the Jubilee
Celebrations.
2014
Queen Mary 2 celebrates her 10th anniversary in
Southampton alongside Queen Elizabeth and
Queen Victoria.
To come...
In 2015 the company will be celebrating 175 years since
the start of Transatlantic service by Britannia in July 1840.
