In time for summer travel, artist Alexandra Pacula brings iconic cityscapes to life in a limited-edition series exclusively for global travel retail.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Maker\u2019s Mark, the iconic handmade Kentucky bourbon, has announced a global travel retail exclusive series featuring custom, city-inspired labels designed by acclaimed artist Alexandra Pacula. Available for a limited time in select airports, the bespoke Maker\u2019s Mark bottles are inspired by destinations including New York, Los Angeles, Paris, London, Dubai, Delhi, Mumbai, Singapore, Seoul, Sydney and Melbourne, inviting travelers to discover and collect each release throughout their journeys.<\/p>\n

“At Maker\u2019s Mark, we\u2019ve always believed that character comes from doing things differently, and this Artist Series \u2013 City Edition brings that idea to life by capturing the distinct spirit and creative energy of iconic cities around the world,”<\/em> said Rob Samuels, eighth-generation whisky maker and Managing Director of Maker\u2019s Mark. \u201cToday\u2019s travelers are looking for experiences that feel personal and memorable, and we\u2019re proud that each beautifully designed bottle is something they can enjoy long after their trip ends.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

Drawing on her signature style of painting inspired by long-exposure photography techniques, Pacula captures each city\u2019s movement, light and rhythm through layered, expressive compositions. Her process mirrors the craftsmanship behind every bottle of Maker\u2019s Mark, with hand-painted details nodding to the brand\u2019s iconic red wax seal.<\/p>\n

Pacula said: \u201cMaker\u2019s Mark has a very intentional approach to craft, and I wanted to mirror that in this body of work. I spent time in each city, immersed in its rhythm and atmosphere, and translated those impressions into expressive visuals that bring each label \u2014 and each place \u2014 to life.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

\u201cTravel retail continues to be a key channel for premium spirits, as consumers increasingly seek exclusive and experience-led purchases during their journey,\u201d<\/em> commented Ashish Sagar, Interim General Manager, Global Travel Retail at Suntory Global Spirits. \u201cWith the brand\u2019s distinctive craftsmanship, the Maker\u2019s Mark Artist Series creates a collectible proposition that truly stands out in airport retail.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

The Maker\u2019s Mark Artist Series \u2013 City Edition will be available beginning in Sydney (SYD), Melbourne (MEL), Singapore (SIN) and Seoul (ICN) airports in July, followed by London (LHR, LGW, STN) and Paris (CDG) in August. The series will continue to roll out in Dubai (DXB), Delhi (DEL), Mumbai (BOM), and in the United States in New York (JFK) and Los Angeles (LAX) in September.<\/p>\n
