DESIGN NAME: Heffron
PRIMARY FUNCTION: Spirits and Alcohol
INSPIRATION: The long journey home (from Russia, via Panama to Europe) and the letters the legionnaires were sending home, are the inspiration for the concept. The name Heffron is the name of the last ship that carried legionnaires from Russia to Europe.
UNIQUE PROPERTIES / PROJECT DESCRIPTION: Rum Heffron was created in honor to the Czechoslovak legions. They fought against the Bolsheviks in Russia in 1914-1918 and made a significant contribution to the establishment of the Czechoslovak Republic after the end of World War I. The rum was launched on the Czech market on the occasion of the centenary of Czechoslowak legionnairs return home after a long journey around the world (from Russia via Panama back to Europe).
OPERATION / FLOW / INTERACTION: It is simple spirit bottle – there's no special function to it. The short legionnaires story on the label might be considered as educative.
PROJECT DURATION AND LOCATION: This project started in July 2018 and was finished in August 2019 in Prague, Czechia.
