The bottle to wine, is equivalent to clothes to people, its importance is self-evident. High-end atmospheric grade of wine bottles, can well enhance the status and value of wine. According to winebend, a team of experts has named the world's top 10 bottles based on their look and function, as well as the most important sustainability factor in bottle design.
And now we're gonna bring you some 2021 bottles.
1、Gin from Harris
If you're looking for an amazing gin to display on your Martini Cart, check out Harris distillery's flagship bottle bar.
“I like the blue tone on the base, which moves up the waves of the bottle very cleverly,” one judge noted. “The wooden stopper is big and imposing; it feels quality.”.
Made in the Outer Hebrides village of Talbot, this Scotch Schnapps is characterised by the use of plant ingredients including local sugar kelp, juniper berries, coriander and orange peel, with citrus and marine flavor.
2、Tequila weather
Tequila Lovers, this is for you. Tiempo Reposado Cristalino made its debut last October, but its design has already won an award. The bottle is made from recycled glass, has a sustainably printed label, and has a natural cork and Cork. Its eye-catching box features illustrations by artist Alan Berry Rhys.
“The box is magical, the colour is beautiful; it is visually pleasing,” said a judge. “I want to reuse it as a water bottle.”.
3、aminent collector's edition
Moët Hennessy's Cuban Rum Brand Eminente won the highest honor in our competition, the coveted Best of its kind award.
“As a gift bag, it's absolutely amazing,” one judge commented. “The bottles and the texture are amazing, and the extra cups and canvas bags are also well made and reused. It's really beautiful.”
Launched in the UK earlier this year, Eminente is a blend of aguardientes, aged in white oak barrels previously filled with whisky. The liquid is then mixed with light Cuban rum and aged, and bottled at 41.3% alcohol.
4、Nikita
The Mexican liqueur NIXTA, created by Casa Lumbre, wowed our judges with its corncob-shaped bottle-a reference to the liquid inside.
“An absolutely outstanding bottle,” one member of the group commented. “It's a beautiful shape, the label is vibrant, but it still has the traditional Mexican style. It shows how to properly package the product to represent the liquid inside.”
Nykista is made from Caca huazintal corn, an ancestral variety that grows around the volcano of Nevado de Toluca in Mexico. Its name comes from the Nixtamalisation process, a Central American cooking technique used to highlight the taste of corn and used in the production of liqueurs.
5、The FERRENC de Angers choose
The brand and packaging agency led the design of Maison Ferrand's Selection Des Anges bottles, which our judges called“First Class.”. They particularly liked its“Beautiful glasswork” and its“Heavy, expensive feel” corks. The name of this luxurious cognac translates as“Angel's choice” and refers to the liquid that evaporates from the barrel as the wine matures, called the Angel's share. The average vintage of this wine is 30 years.
6、12-year-old black-headed gull and bird feeder
Our judges loved the creative pairing of the 12-year-old red breast, a metal birdcage-shaped bottle holder that serves as a bird feeder-or, as one judge put it, a“Bird's restaurant.”. For every bottle sold, the brand donates 3 euros to birdlife International, a charity dedicated to protecting birds and their habitats. “I like the idea of bird feeders,” one of our judges said It's a brilliant move. “The actual bird feeder cage is light and versatile, and you want the consumer to use it for their intended purpose, or to give it to someone at the meeting.”
7、Compass Box's“Hooligan Feast” mixes with Scotch whisky
The label of Compass Box Rogues' Banquet -- another design from the branding agency Stranger & Stranger -- evokes the grandiose paintings of Renaissance. Our judges called it“Complicated” and“A lot to do” and praised it as a“Very cool design” overall. The bottle is a limited edition blended Scotch whisky from Miltonduff, Clynelish and Glen Elgin Distilleries, as well as grain whisky from North distilleries. It's for the 20th anniversary of the Compass Box-we thought it would be a wonderful gift if you could get a bottle.
8、Olde Raleigh Distillery Bourbon whiskey
The Olde Raleigh Distillery Bourbon Whiskey won praise from our group, thanks to its unique bottle shape-the brainchild of CF Napa-our judges pointed out that it“Reminds me of a whisky glass”. They also like its“Great texture on the label”. Designed as a reusable glass decanter, the bottle features details such as an embossed logo on the bottom and coins attached to the wooden top cover. Olde Raleigh Distillery in Zebulon, North Carolina, uses a 19th-century Scottish blend to make its flagship bourbon. This wine contains three Bourbons from all over the United States, containing malt, corn and rye.
9、Stavning. Kaos
The Danish Distillery Stauning is the world leader in whisky and its eye-catching bottle design reflects the quality of the liquid in the bottle. Our team was impressed by its“Abstract black matte detail” and“Striking modern artwork”. Kaos is Stauning's blend of malt rye whiskey, whisky without the skin and whisky with the skin. Earlier this year, Stauning launched El Cl ã ¡ Sico, a rye whiskey made in a barrel of absinthe. El Cl ásico's design also won a Master Medal in our competition.
10、Raasay single malt
Strangers & Strangers has won another award for a single malt whisky served on the island of Russell. Our experts are keen to use its texture, especially its“Fossil shell imprint”. “It's a beautiful bottle, it's amazing. The paper label gives a feeling of luxury,” one judge said excitedly. The design was inspired by the landscape of Lasser Island, a Scotch Island where whisky is produced. The wine itself was the first legal single malt from Lassee.
