Mermaid Gin Comes in a Tactile Plastic-Free, Recyclable Bottle

— March 5, 2019 — Lifestyle
The Isle of Wight Distillery introduced a fresh new gin bottle design for its premium Mermaid Gin that is plastic-free and recyclable. The bottle is colored with biodegradable paint and incorporates all-natural cork, a wooden top and a paper seal, making it a showpiece bottle that also supports sustainability and ultimately, sea life.

The bottle boasts a highly tactile design with scales that resemble the light-refracting qualities of the tail of a mythical creature. The cool-colored gin bottle takes on the hues of the world's waters, ranging from the bright and clear tones of the Mediterranean to the jewel-toned greens of the Mid-Atlantic.

The gin bottle also boasts other clever design details, such as it being weighted forward for ease of handling.
