s778 Heritage
The s778 Heritage gin, the first gin from Brač, Croatia, is a tribute to the island itself. Its name combines universality and local heritage: ‘S’ encapsulating Sun, Sea and Stone (Sunce, Sol, Stina), and ‘778’ denoting Brač’s peak altitude, the highest in the Croatian coast.
The focal point of the label is Brač Island, depicted through a minimalist ‘glow’ effect inside the bottle, with Vidova Gora’s peak marked distinctly, and a compass rose subtly gracing the background. The inner side of the label reveals a text, resembling a message in a bottle, deepening the product’s narrative.
The label transcends its boundaries into a tactile dimension with a hand-stamped, white wax seal bearing a stone wall pattern, symbolic of family ties and Brač’s architectural legacy. This bespoke stamp renders each bottle unique. The design’s duality is striking – white exterior representing family, against an island-representing interior, accented solely by bronze foil. In a final nod to Brač and its renowned stonework, the bottle is capped with authentic Brač stone.
The design for s778 is a narrative encompassing Brač Island’s heritage, topography, and culture. Each bottle is a visual delight, tactile exploration, and a distinctive artifact, mirroring the singular beauty of Brač.
