Bar carts are a place of libation presentation. It’s where your best tumblers and coupes hold court, as well as your most beloved bottles and softest cocktail napkins, available for all guests to indulge in. And while it’s essential to stock all the basics, sometimes, it’s just as important to showcase the beloved underdogs, the spirits from distilleries unfamiliar but with packaging that packs an eyeball punch.
Brent Schoepf, a senior designer at Studio MPLS, developed the packaging system for Strange Lands Gin, a spirit from Three Rivers, a Quebec-based distillery that had to close up shop. While the distillery no longer exists, the packaging design lives on in its honor.
