Brand Tone

Playful & Humorous, Friendly & Approachable, Passionate & Craft-Oriented, Community-Focused

Brand Values

• •Quality Craftsmanship
• •Local Sourcing & Community
• •Passion for Spirits
• •Good Times & Enjoyment
• •Authenticity & Transparency

Best Practices

• •Embrace the Pun: Don't shy away from the playful nature of the brand name. Use puns and witty wordplay related to "pour" and "decisions" where appropriate, keeping it clever and not overdone.
• •Balance Playfulness with Quality: While the tone is fun, always reinforce the high-quality, craft nature of the spirits. The humor should draw people in, but the quality messaging ("small batch," "local ingredients," "handcrafted") should build trust and justify the premium nature of a craft product.
• •Keep it Friendly and Inclusive: Use welcoming language that makes customers feel like part of a community. Avoid overly technical jargon unless explaining a unique craft aspect in an accessible way.
• •Storytelling is Key: Weave in elements of the distillery's origin, the passion of the founders, and the connection to the Finger Lakes region. This adds authenticity to the playful persona.
• •Consistency Across Platforms: Ensure the playful yet quality-conscious tone is maintained across the website, all social media channels, product descriptions, and any marketing materials. Develop a simple brand voice guide if multiple people are creating content.

Social Perception

A legitimate, craft-focused distillery with a fun, engaging brand name. They are perceived as a local business dedicated to quality and community. The playful name likely attracts customers looking for a unique and less pretentious spirit-buying experience.
