Warner’s invented a few big things back in the twenty tens - farm-grown gin and the now world famous rhubarb gin. Other brands with bigger budgets took notice and jumped on the bandwagon claiming to be the real, deal but the truth was anything but. Artificial gins full of shipped not picked botanicals shouted loudest. Enough was enough for this set of disobedient original British gin farmers.

MAKE IT MOTIVATING

Warner’s is the leading independent gin brand in the UK. They’ve been able to maintain this because of a focus on real botanicals, real fruit and importantly, real craft and graft. Key to the new BVI was to show the realities of life on the UK’s original gin farm, showing the beauty of the land, the personalities who work it and importantly the fruits of their labour. We show this as you’d find it, often in awe of nature and often via a perfectly imperfect lens to stay true to such an authentic and real brand.

MAKE IT MATTER

The campaign needed to work across international markets and multiple consumer and trade touchpoints - press ads, retailer media and trade and shopper experiential. A design template that promoted the brand's unique approach was key, but it also needed to be flexible and workable with the realities of a fast-moving, founder-led brand. Creating something so flexible and executionally efficient, yet still packed with real meaning was no easy feat. Spending time on the farm truly helped us see, feel and taste nature's bounty before all the team's care and craft took it further to make some of the most important gin inventions of the last decade truly blossom in campaign comms.
