Changing attitudes towards conventional packaging solutions are challenging brands to distribute their products in creative new ways and to do so, whisky brand The Glenlivet unveiled The Glenlivet Capsule Collection. In partnership with sustainable packaging company Nootka and cocktail legend Alex Kratena, The Glenlivet created "glassless cocktails" that are wrapped in edible, seaweed-based pods.
These consumable capsules offer a completely different way for adults to experience the brand's products and do so in a sustainable way. The Glenlivet Capsule Collection, unveiled at London Cocktail Week, features edible, fully biodegradable capsules that burst in the mouth to provide a shot of flavor, all without the need for traditional cocktail-making tools and accessories like drinkware, ice or stirrers.
