The design also eliminates the need for glue, making the packaging fully recyclable in domestic settings. 

Bruichladdich global marketing director Gareth Brown said: “Bruichladdich and James Cropper share many common values.  

“When it came to creating the new outer packaging for our Luxury Redefined range, we wanted to produce something truly unique and groundbreaking, reflecting such rare and special liquid.”  

Bruichladdich’s bottles contain an average of 60% recycled glass, which aligns with the distillery’s B Corp certification and its commitment to reducing packaging waste. 

The collaboration extends to the bottle’s design, which has been revamped in partnership with Thirst, a global creative partner.
