March has come in like a lion, whatever that means. Here in San Francisco, March 1st was kinda gray, no real rain, high 40’s…so, it came it more like maybe a wet ferret, but who cares. A new month means a new Whisky Roundtable, this time hosted by the far-too-serious men of the Edinburgh Whisky Blog. This month’s question focuses on a subject near and dear to my heart….packaging.
Here’s the question:
THE CASKS 
I used to be a graphic designer, so this is a topic dear to my heart.
For a modern design, I love the Big Peat labeling. Hugely expressive and appropriate to the style of whisky.
In a more classical style, but still very impactful, Hedonism Maximus. And if you’ve ever tasted the stuff…Oh Baby!
For 2010 specific packaging I also think the Flaming Heart 10th Anni bottle is nice.
Well, I guess we’ll agree to disagree on the Big Peat label, Mark…I can’t stand that one. But I totally agree with you on the Flaming Heart 10, great looking bottle. I think Compass Box does a good job in general with their packaging.
