Radical whisky bottle design

By Rain Noe - November 15, 2007

in Object Culture

Whisky distillers typically prize an older look for their bottle designs; for example, most of them wouldn't look out of place on a shelf in Bilbo Baggins' place in Lord of the Rings.

Enter disruptive HK designer Michael Young, whose radical bottles for Nikka Whisky are neither transparent, antiquated looking, smooth, or even symmetrical. The black matte finish and odd tactile protrusions will make you wonder if you're drunk before you've even opened the bottle.
