The Maple 7
The Maple 7 is a bottle and box design created for a Canadian rye whisky. The bottle combines clean lines with wide shoulders, frost etched glass and a soft ribbed base and closure that improve grip. Brushed brass and gold foil details contrast with the textured glass. The box repeats the ribbed texture on the outside and is lined in a soft cream suede tone with gold detailing. A magnetized gold medallion locks the double flap doors. The bottle rests in a gold socket and can be lifted out. The forms refer to maple trunks and rye grain.
The Maple 7 Canadian Rye Whisky by Tiago Russo was identified as a creative illustration of communication design by the A' Design Awards.

The A' Packaging Design Award is an international, jury-voted, fair and ethical design accolade that honors exceptional design of bottles, boxes, cans, pouches, tubes, cartons, wrappers, bags and more.
