Copper Fiddle Distillery of Lake Zurich, IL, has selected a unique bottle design to generate buzz for its whiskey and gin products. Copper Fiddle is the first in North America to use the glass bottle styleβthe Imperial, part of O-Iβs Covet Classics luxury collectionβwhich it finds an ideal fit for its Bourbon Whiskey, Tom Gin, and Fiddle Gin.
βThe uniqueness, simplicity, and four-sided appeal of the Imperial bottle make it perfect for showcasing the beauty and quality of our spirits line, which is available at our tasting room in Lake Zurich [as well as at some Chicago-area bars and restaurants],β says Fred Robinson, Proprietor, Copper Fiddle Distillery. βWorking with O-I helped us find the right presence for our brand without sacrificing our ability to get to market according to plan.β
Accentuating the design, custom labeling and a black cork add a modern attitude to the classic decanter-style bottle. In addition to receiving a positive response from the guests who visit the facility for tours, the striking package has also drawn the attention of consumers further afield. βOur bottle caught the eye of producers in Hollywood, who saw it in media coverage and called to talk to us about product placement opportunities,β says Jose Hernandez, Copper Fiddle Proprietor. βReceiving this much attention is an incredible advantage for us.β
