About Discussions Projects18 Journals4

Distillery branding encompasses the design systems, packaging, and visual identities that define spirits producers in a competitive market. This includes logo design, label aesthetics, brand guidelines, and the broader positioning that communicates a distillery's heritage, production methods, and product quality to consumers.

The community explores case studies and branding approaches for distilleries of varying scales and styles, from established regional producers to craft operations. Members share work on bottle design, brand narratives, and the visual language that connects distillery identity to consumer perception and shelf presence.

Tradition

The client came to CF Napa to redesign their brand packaging to feel more authentic, premium & to capture their winemaking experience. Our solution uses a historic engraving of an eagle sitting atop an ornate framework that encompasses a cluster of grapes. The label utilizes a stock certificate-like design that leverages a vintage date seal and "T" monogram.

Coppercraft Distillery

Every bottle of Coppercraft Premium Spirits is a tribute to the American Craftsmen. They asked CF Napa to develop their story and packaging that would capture the legacy of their West Michigan tradition: makers & manufacturers; creators & curators; designers & developers. A legacy that embraces hard work and celebrates our community of family and friends.

Ziami

Florida Rum Company came to CF Napa to develop their new Rum brand Ziami. Distilled from Florida-grown Sugarcane, they sought to captivate mixologist and seasoned connoisseurs. The brand needed to be fresh and authentic, while being true to its Florida roots and at home in any Miami Beach nightclub.

Three Chord Bourbon

The client came to CF Napa to design the packaging for their Bourbon that is a blend finished with their trademarked process utilizing tonal vibrations that alter the molecular structure of the bourbon. The black labels are all rock and roll with a guitar pick monogram foil stamped in gold and a framework of flourishes and type that elude to a stage.

David

Forbidden Fruit

St. Julian Winery and Distillery asked CF Napa to design their new hard cider that is crafted utilizing Michigan apples from farm to glass. The name evoked a sense of mystery and an intrinsic naughtiness. The brand needed to feel craft and authentic. Our solution combines the classic symbol of the Garden of Eden's apple in a die cut with the serpent.

Exitus Bourbon Barrel Aged Wine

Bold and unconventional, Exitus is a red wine aged in Bourbon barrels. The design elicits a sense of luxury as well as a bit of a bad boy attitude through the use of a black label with gold foil embellishments inspired by tattoo culture. The final touch was a strip seal over the top of the closure of the bottle that calls out the 3-month age statement.

David

Alley 6 Craft Distillery

Alley 6 Craft came to CF Napa to design packaging for their craft spirits. The solution was a design that captured the artisanal nature of their distillery that produces small batch productions from their Alembic Copper pot stills. The foil accents mimic the copper stills and every bottle's batch information, bottle number and bottling date is hand-written.

Loch & Union Distilling

Loch & Union's namesake was inspired by locations on campus at the Heriot-Watt University in Edinburgh, Scotland where their master distiller earned his Master's Degree. Building on this we developed a collegiate inspired crest for the brand's logo. The wrap around labels denote each of the distillery's gins through color and a platinum seal of quality.
