Ballantines 17

Gift Packaging for Li-Shang Printing Co., Ltd

In order to create a rigid box that embodies the atmosphere of an altar this design has a moving mechanism that allows the book to rise up on the gold stage as the lid lies down to reveal the liquor and the whisky bible. Samples of spices contain the flavors of the whisky to enrich the sense of smell and elevate the value of the liquor. The presentation of graphics and objects are in a sequence to trigger different senses. Users see then touch and smell to create an interactive experience.

Unique Properties

As users unfold and interact with the packaging, the visuals, the smells and then the tastes create a sensuous experience to emphasize the value of the whisky.

Production Technology

Rigid box with UV Offset printing on silver foil paper, gold and blue spot color with embossing technique on logos. The highlight of the packaging is the conveyor belt mechanism that is installed under the box which allows the bible stand to rise up as users lay down the box cover.

Design Challenge

The moment from unfolding the packaging to drinking the liquor, we carefully design how the users would interact with the components and how the experience of colors, movements, smells and tastes will present the value of the brand to its full potential.

Project Duration

The project started in Taiwan in June 2020 and completed in Taiwan in August 2020.

Operation Flow

When users open the plain blue box the bible will emerge on the golden stage, placed right next to the prestige Scotch Blend whisky. As a pathway leading up to the stage, the gold prints record the past seven awarded years. Cork bottled samples of the spices and flavors are presented at the front of the box cover to provide users a more dynamic experience for the sense of smell right before their first sip of the whisky.

Research

With Bible as our inspiration, we wanted to portray a sacred moment with the honorable mentioned whisky, as if it is presented at the end of a holy altar. The key is to convey the concept of time and create interactions with the senses through special structural mechanism and thoughtful placement of objects. We had planned to design the flow of the interaction as this: First, users witness the rising bible. Then they proceed to read the honorable past of the whisky. Finally, they take in the aromas of the spices at the front before they enjoy the whisky. The whole experience is presented in the sequence of visual, smell then taste.

Inspiration

Ballantine’s 17 Year Old blended whisky has been named 2020 Scotch Blend of the Year in Jim Murray’s Whisky Bible. This limited edition packaging celebrates the famous whisky for its 7th win of the same title. The idea that Bible signifies the most important print, we use this as our core concept. Combined with Ballantine's signature blue color, we designed a conceptual space that translates a gilded magnificent altar into an elevated stage for the liquor bottle and the Whisky Bible.
