The Dunnet Bay Distillers Wonders of the Wilderness Holy Grass Scottish Vodka with Apple Tonic cocktail is a new creation from the distillery to provide consumers with a sustainable canned libation to enjoy. The cocktail is made with the namesake holy grass botanical that is sourced locally, while the packaging and labeling are achieved using fruit waste alongside the highly recyclable aluminum can. The cocktail comes in 250ml cans with a 5.5% ABV at a price point of £2.50 each.
Environment Manager at Dunnet Bay Sarah Lyons spoke further on the Dunnet Bay Distillers Wonders of the Wilderness Holy Grass Scottish Vodka with Apple Tonic cocktail saying, "Aluminium is of course one of the most sustainable packaging materials, being a high grade, lightweight metal that is infinitely recyclable. We also wanted the label to be as sustainable as possible and chose paper over a plastic sleeve as direct printing was not available to us. This product therefore accords with our company’s environmental sustainability ethos."
