CONTEXT
Global spirits company Diageo had purchased the Stitzel-Weller Distillery in Kentucky, along with a trove of amazing bourbon brands. A formerly worldwide-famous, 142-year-old bourbon brand named I.W. HARPER was chosen to resurrect and re-launch after being absent from U.S. shelves for nearly 20 years. GERTRUDE was briefed with a small bottle of liquid, a few historical assets, and a library of stories about the bourbon legend.
