  1. The top half of a bottle is prime label real estate. Be diligent about how you fill that space.
  2. The font size communicates what’s most important in a brand.
  3. The word/words in the largest font size are what customers will remember.
  4. Putting ‘whiskey’ or ‘rum’ in the largest font promotes the category, not your unique brand name and story.
  5. Use these same rules when creating your social media, website, t-shirts and tasting room. There should be a seamless look across all platforms.

Cheers!
