Personalised Prescription Gin Bottle Label Custom - Any Wording

Product Information

There are four different categories of Gin styles and it all comes down to how they are produced. The styles are London Dry Gin, Distilled Gin, Genever and Sloe Gin (well technically Sloe Gin is a Liqueur). Our range covers products within all these categories.

Additionally, the product implied a link between consumption and curing physical and mental ailments. On the front of the bottle it stated, “Possible side effects: May include extreme relaxation, giddiness and happiness.” The Chair explained that during the Informal Resolution process she had noted that the bottle was 200ml and contained sparkles. The Chair explained that as part of the Informal Resolution review she had raised rule 3.2(h) for consideration as it was her view that the product could appear toy-like and therefore warranted further discussion as to whether it had a particular appeal to under-18s. The Panel noted that the bottle was designed to look like prescription medicine, in that the shape of the bottle, the name ‘Prescription Gin’ and the green cross displayed on the front of the bottle was an exact replica of a pharmacy cross in the UK. Gifting company MixPixie has been forced to discontinue its ‘Prescription Gin’ brand after a complaint made by a member of the public was upheld by regulatory body the Portman Group. MixPixie will now work with an advisory service on designing a new label for its gin. Each medicine style bottle is made of toughened glass and comes with a wrapped cork for extra protection during transit. The bottles are a lovely keepsake and are reusable when the delicious contents have all gone!

Personalised gifting company Mixpixie has agreed to discontinue its Prescription Gin after a complaint was upheld over its medicine-inspired bottle design. The label for Prescription Gin featured a green pharmacy cross The company opened by stating that it appreciated the complainant’s misunderstandings, but that it disputed the points raised and wished to respond to the concerns. Raspberry Gin Liqueur, Golden Sparkly Spiced Gin Liqueur, Sloe Gin Liqueur and Rhubarb and Ginger Gin Liqueur The company explained that it took its alcohol licence very seriously and that it had met with Trading Standards to ensure that no laws or rules had been breached with the product. The company stated that Trading Standards had approved the changes and that it was also waiting to hear from the Advertising Standards Authority to confirm compliance before any further changes were made to the product. The Panel’s assessment:The Panel therefore concluded there was a clear suggestion that the product had therapeutic qualities, which breached Code rule 3.2(j). Despite the complaint being upheld on two counts, the Panel refused to condemn it on other alleged breaches of the Code, noting that: “The bottle referenced gin six times and the label clearly stated the alcoholic strength of the product. There was no evidence the product had an association with dangerous behaviour or a particular appeal to under-18s as the sparkles in the product were not the dominant feature, nor did the product have childish imagery, sweet flavours, contrast colours or a childish font.” https://www.notonthehighstreet.com/mixpixie/product/personalised-medicine-style-flavoured-gin?fbclid=IwAR0VlCi2AVLDtuxn7Mp5XsmdT84199wXBrJcjAFIhUnFdAvfh-bSF3pDV9g
