Enhancing the Experience: 3 Materials that Elevate the Appearance of a Spirit Drink Using Cork Stopper

Cork is a natural material that has been used for centuries as a stopper for glass bottles of spirits and wines. Despite the existence of synthetic alternatives today, cork stoppers have become the preferred closure for brands aiming to project maximum quality and iconic image, thanks to their natural beauty and numerous benefits.

Elevating the appearance of your spirit

To further enhance consumer perception, it is possible to customize the stopper using a wide variety of materials such as metal, wood, glass, and plastic, decorated with techniques like engraving and painting.

This customization allows for the creation of authentic works of art. For this reason, we have identified the 3 most commonly used materials by our customers to personalize their product’s stoppers:

Wood

Using the most natural materials, wood can impart a sense of tradition to your product. It is the most environmentally friendly material and can be decorated in various ways, such as laser engraving, pad printing, embossing, and etching, to name just a few options. Some brands that have selected these stoppers include Ron Abuelo Two Oaks, Ron Santa Terera, and Ron Díaz de Vivar.

Metal

This category includes all metals, from zamak to brass, silver, and even gold. Metal caps can also be decorated with laser engraving, pad printing, and embossing. Our expertise with luxurious materials offers our customers endless creative options, including coins and other accessories, truly elevating the appearance of the final product to a luxury and high-end level. Two examples of this luxurious option are Ron Diplomático Single Vintage and Ron Diplomático Ambassador.

Plastic

The plastic top cork stoppers are designed for functionality and mass production, although depending on their design, they can be extremely visually appealing and convey a sense of exclusivity. Embossing, engraving, and metallic finishes are just a few of the decorative options that allow for creative expression. Some brands that have opted for this option include Ron Diplomático Reserva Exclusiva, Ron Abuelo 12 años, and Ron Don Isidro Bordas.

Technological advancements and sustainability practices are contributing to making the cork production process increasingly efficient and environmentally friendly, thus ensuring the availability of this valuable material for future generations. At the same time, the possibility of customizing caps through techniques such as engraving, embossing, and painting is not overlooked, resulting in stoppers that perfectly align with the brand’s image, further enhancing its prestige in special editions and packaging revamps. These techniques allow for the creation of unique and distinctive stoppers that reinforce the brand’s identity and add a touch of exclusivity to the presentation of the spirit.
