What makes a whisky bottle truly exceptional beyond the spirit inside? The Three Monkeys Indian Single-malt whisky 'Design medal winner' from The World Whiskies Awards 2025 reveal how great design elevates whisky.
Great spirits packaging can do far more than catch the eye. It can communicate a sense of place and signal craftsmanship before the bottle is opened. It can also tell a story that deepens the drinker’s connection to what is inside.
Each year, the judges review bottles from across the world. They look for designs that are beautiful, useful, sustainable, and commercially smart. Only a few earns the Design medal. The Three Monkeys Indian Single-malt whisky reached that level this year and shows how thoughtful design and strong whisky making can work together.
“This is a gorgeous mix of tradition and modern design. The monkey hugging embossing on the bottle from the front on to the sides, the shape of the bottle, the texture of the bottle design, gold print detailing on the bottle. Every detail has been thought through. This is how the overall design has come out well to receive the medal”
Ashwin Balivada CEO of Cheers group who mastered Business Management from Cambridge University UK.
