Hotel Tango: Operation Teapot
Design, Illustration, Photography, Copywriting
HOTEL TANGO hails as the first combat-disabled, veteran-owned distillery in the US. Their spirits are fit to serve — and made to share.
OPERATION TEAPOT serves as a conceptual brand campaign introducing new products that make sense for the brand. Ensure you, your comrades, and any co-conspirators are well-equipped for the end.
NOTICE: Light mischief ahead.
The current brand look and feel, with their existing bottles and sample of their advertising. Note the modern, straight-forward military precision and playful language.

Cold War ephemera offers a fresh take on the current brand's look and feel.
