They hand-selected a barrel of rye whiskey and collaborated with their in-house designer to craft custom labels for 200ml flask-style bottles. These bottles became cherished gifts for employees, investors, and clients, adding a memorable and personal touch to their celebrations and business relationships.

Opting for a custom proof, he added 2 bespoke "1928" stickers alongside the official label. The result? A one-of-a-kind whiskey that perfectly complemented their bar’s story and delighted patrons with its exclusive, tailored appea
A Birthday to Remember
A devoted Mad River fan planned the ultimate birthday gift for himself, commissioning a custom 25-gallon barrel of bourbon three years in advance. As the big day approached, the whiskey was bottled and adorned with commemorative labels. He personally visited the distillery to collect his bottles and even brought home the barrel, which now serves as a striking centerpiece in his wine cellar—a lasting reminder of this extraordinary celebration.
