Hunter Luxury has unveiled its latest collaboration – 12 bespoke wooden boxes for The Glenlivet: The Twelve Elements, a historic 50 year old single malt whisky.
The collection consists of 12 bottles containing a blend of two casks of single malt whisky. Each of the 12 individual bottles carries a unique label themed after one of the elements needed to make the finest whisky.
Each bottle is packed in a hand carved wooden box designed to meet the highest standards, featuring a high gloss lacquer with metal detailing and a printed hydrographic ‘moat’ frame to display the bottle, sealed with a bespoke electroplated brass amulet. Each of the amulets carried a design based on one of the 12 elements from which the collection takes its name.
‘This was a uniquely exciting project to work on,’ said Paul Hamilton, head of spirits at Hunter Luxury. ‘As it was just 12 units, it is not a project that many packaging companies would take on, but we knew we could do it and are thrilled at how the final product turned out.
‘When you work with such a limited run of units, things like quality control checks and contingency plans take on a whole new importance. We were also working on a quick turnaround time, so to take a project like this from conceptualisation to completion while hitting the customer’s brief within the required timescale is a testament to the skill and design expertise of our team.’
The Glenlivet: The Twelve Elements collection is on sale at The Whisky Exchange Cabinet at an initial price of €40,000.
