Art in the Age of… Snap Sampling + Root- 08.16.10

On awesome packaging and samples… Art in the Age of Mechanical Reproduction just launched SNAP! The follow up spirit to ROOT! And they were kind enough to send over a sample ~ which of course came adorably packaged! Custom tissue paper, fun sticker, awesome bottle, and all! See lots of pics on the next page!

So far we’ve only tasted quick sips, so, perhaps more to come on playing around with them in cocktails and in delicious recipes like… Root infused Pecan Pie? But for now ~ pics of the gorgeous branding, packaging, and illustrations all on the next page!

4 Notes

What’s with the pyramid and the all seeing eye design?
It is interesting tho that the eye is at the bottom of the pyramid.
Fallen from grace? I love it!

Hi Jean
Root looks very like Elixir Vegetal - see http://picasaweb.google.co.uk/rjo2004/ElixirVegetal# and of course http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chartreuse_(liqueur)
I have had this bottle for over 25 years - since you are only supposed to take 1 drop at a time it last forever. Haven’t seen any cocktail recipes for it though.

Love Art in the Age, some of my buddies sent a bottle of ROOT over to the UK since it’s not available here (or outside Pennsylvania?), really unusual spirit, makes for some interesting cocktails.
