Black Bottle

Black Bottle: an iconic Scotch Whisky.

‍Growth Mission: launching a premium range ‘The Alchemy Series’ by making a dent with discerning tastemakers.

‍How we Won Hearts: the 140 year old brand needed to fast-track their innovation creds to drive intrigue. We set out to surprise even the most hard-core whisky geeks.

‍How we Blew Minds: an experimental psychologist created a ‘taste experiment’ where sound via Spotify was used to enhance the tasting experience.

‍The Renaissance: the first year’s sales target was smashed within 6 months, with 61M+ reach and 100% positive sentiment from whisky geeks. Cheers!
