The GlenAllachie Scotch whisky brand has unveiled a redefined core identity, featuring an "updated logo, refreshed packaging, and a new slogan for its single malt range; this rebranding effort aims to modernize the brand while retaining its heritage."
Notably, the rebranding includes distinctive typography with hand-crafted letterforms inspired by the slanted silhouette of the distillery's gable end. Furthermore, the design employs a natural, dual-tone palette, symbolizing the balance of logic and instinct.
In addition to the visual changes, the brand has introduced a new slogan, "Whisky in good hands." The GlenAllachie’s updated collection features 10-, 12-, 15-, and 18-year-old expressions, along with a special release of a 35-year-old whisky available in Singapore. Launching in November, this collection can be purchased through AsiaEuro’s online store for island-wide delivery and at select bars and restaurants across Singapore.
