"Basically the design intent was to create two siblings that also had their own identity between the vodka and the gin. We wanted a bottle that was distinctive, not overly expensive, and also felt good in the hand. The vodka became more feminine, and more like a perfume bottle. The gin moved more towards an apothecary bottle, with more information, and less clear glass. On all of the designs, the name had to be prominent, there had to be a picture of Washington Island, the island where the wheat is grown for the products, and a level of story on the back of the bottle. We are very pleased with the results and are excited with the response of consumer."
