UNIQUE LIQUID REFRESHMENTS LAUNCHED AS CORPORATE GIFTS WITH A DIFFERENCE

1st May 2009

When times are tough and staff are working harder than ever it’s important to give employees and clients a small reward to thank them for their loyalty. Despairing of cupboards full of redundant umbrellas, mugs or clocks, leading liquid deli Demijohn has created the corporate gift with a difference – personalised bottles of one of its unique spirits.

Companies can choose which one of Demijohn’s delicious spirits go in the bottle from firm favourites such as Raspberry Vodka, fruity Bramble Scotch Whisky Liqueur, or unusual Seville Orange Gin to a 17 year old Clynelish Single Malt whisky.

Mindful of the credit crunch Demijohn ensures these gifts don’t cost the earth and are certain to be fully enjoyed by the recipient. Given the unusual nature of the gifts and the fact a little spirit will pep anyone up these corporate gifts will ensure the giver is never forgotten.

Demijohn has introduced 100ml elegant glass goccia bottles for corporate gifts, to complement their range of bottles from small 40ml to round 1 litre bottles. A complimentary handwritten message can be added to each bottle making them far more personal and special than the hundreds of uninspiring corporate gifts usually available. This simple message can be a mere thank you or a seasonal greeting. In addition, all Demijohn’s glass and wood products can be further personalised by engraving them with logos or corporate artwork.  

Demijohn also offer bespoke corporate events, such as a tasting evening, which is ideal for rewarding hard working staff and build team relationships or provide an ice breaker for a client evening.  Corporate events usually consist of a tasting in the client’s offices or at Demijohn’s Edinburgh or Glasgow shops. Attendees start with a drink and are then given a fully hosted tasting of the Demijohn product range.

Demijohn’s Managing Director Angus Ferguson says: “Unique alcoholic gifts are always a winner and we get many requests for corporate gifts from companies across the UK looking for a reward with a difference. Given the flexibility of the gifts – the buyer chooses the bottle, contents and message – we can provide a very successful and innovative corporate package. Whatever the occasion, be it entertaining overseas clients, rewarding achieving employees or providing a table gift at a dinner, our bespoke corporate service will have the right gift.”

Demijohn, founded five years ago, is Scotland’s only liquid deli which lovingly sources its liquid products - liqueurs, spirits, whiskies, wines, vinegars and oils - from small producers across the UK and Europe who, like Demijohn have a passion for good food and drink produced in an eco-friendly way. Stored in large glass demijohns, customers choose the size and shape of the re-useable bottle, making Demijohn a unique niche high street retailer.
