Award-winning design

Design & Packaging

Presentation cases and gift packaging crafted from natural, certified materials — for our releases, private clients and corporate gifts.

Our approach

Minimalist. Natural. Timeless.

Every release is dressed as a work of art in its own right — developed with skilled craftsmen and artisanal designers, and made from the finest natural materials.

We work with FSC® and Rainforest Alliance certified hardwoods such as walnut, granadillo, rosewood, purple heart and cocobolo, combined with laser etching, hand engraving, lead-free crystal, copper fittings and Japanese Echizen washi. Nothing is plastic: every case is made from recyclable wood, glass and paper.

Our packaging has been recognised with first place in Luxury & Premium Packaging at the London Packaging Week Innovation Awards 2025, a World Whiskies Awards Design Gold and an IWSC Design Silver.
