Benedict College proudly congratulates distinguished alumna Babette B. Jones, founder of Six Nineteen of 1865 Spirits, on being recognized as one of the 2026 SC BIZ Top 100 Women.

A proud Benedict College graduate who also holds a master’s degree in human resource development, Jones continues to exemplify visionary leadership through her purpose-driven beverage brand, producing premium ready-to-drink cocktails and mocktails.

Her philosophy of leadership reflects the spirit of service and excellence embodied by Benedict Tigers:

“When you lead with heart, keep your word, and create opportunities for others, success becomes something you share, not something you keep,” said Jones.

Benedict College celebrates Babette B. Jones for this well-deserved honor and applauds her continued impact as a business leader, entrepreneur, and proud Tiger alumna.
