Send to KindleThis label's no lemon
The smoked-glass 750-mL bottle from Anchor Glass (Tampa FL) is indeed impressive. For one thing it's oval-shaped instead of round. Adding to its elegance are front and back pressure-sensitive film labels. The 2-mil biaxially oriented polypropylene labels converted by Spear (Mason OH) give the Bacardi bottle the "no-label look."
The screen-printed front label is produced on a flat-bed press. Three colors are laid down in one pass as well as foil hot-stamped for the medallions near the bottom of the label. Like the bottle the label was designed by Gianninoto Associates (New York NY). Its wave motif is meant says the designer to have an electric effect to be lyrical positive upbeat and fun. On the back of the bottle is a much smaller two-color OPP label that carries bar code and obligatory ingredient information.
The front of the bottle also carries Bacardi's signature bat emblem in label form. Printed flexo in three colors on a paper/foil laminate by Heritage Label (Garfield NJ) the label is applied into a molded circular embellishment on the shoulder of the bottle.
