A whisky brand by Kenya Wine Agencies Limited (KWAL), Hunter’s Choice has launched a new upgraded bottle design. The whisky will now be sold in a new-look bottle that has been meticulously designed to include a new closure that will guarantee the product’s safety.
The taste and pricing of Hunter’s Choice have not changed. The rebrand is for consumers to enjoy a fine whisky in a nice new bottle, at an affordable price. The last time the company did a bottle upgrade was in April 2018, and they have now improved it after feedback from their consumers.
Mr Jonas Geeraerts, KWAL Commercial Director, said, “The new upgraded bottle has three key features: a new closure, a vibrant and modern label, and a new brand proposition. This new closure is aimed at securing the brand as a leader in the local whisky category. The taste and pricing of Hunter’s Choice have not changed. The rebrand is for our consumers to enjoy a fine whisky in a nice new bottle, at an affordable price. The last time we did a bottle upgrade was in April 2018, and we have now improved it after feedback from our consumers.”
Hunter’s Choice also seeks to engage young Kenyan males looking for meaning and purpose in life and experiences that reflect their journey into manhood. “The bottle upgrade is aimed at appealing to male consumers aged between 20 and 35. Our insights revealed that Hunter’s Choice fits seamlessly into their lifestyles and provides diversity,” said Dr. Senorine Wasike, KWAL Head of Marketing.
As part of taking the brand to consumers, KWAL has rolled out an Explore Boldly on-ground activation campaign in Nairobi, Kisumu, Eldoret and Nakuru over the next three (3) months. “We know our target audiences are young and ambitious, hope for better and work towards it. They hungry for success, respect and admiration of their peers. If they make it that will truly set them apart. Hunter’s Choice whisky therefore seeks to honour these individual achievements. Within the golden liquid lies the golden moments of everyone’s successful endeavours” added Dr. Wasike.
