mCruz Dyzigns Hits a Packaging GRAND SLAM on Their First Time at Bat! Label will Gain Celebrity Exposure at the Upcoming 54th Annual GRAMMY Awards®

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
(Free-Press-Release.com) January 27, 2012 -- NEW HAVEN, CT January 27, 2012 – “Any designer can tell you that breaking into the package design industry is difficult to say the least,” says Miladys Cruz-Fisher, principal and creative director of mCruz Dyzigns of New Haven, CT. “When I saw an ad seeking a designer for a start-up distillery on a mission to launch Connecticut’s first legal moonshine since prohibition, I jumped at the opportunity,” she adds.

Sifting through over 100 responses and a couple dozen or so interviews later, the Onyx Spirits Company, a local distillery based out of Manchester, CT, settled on mCruz Dyzigns as the official label designer for their new Onyx Moonshine liquor product. “Although I had never professionally designed a consumer-packaged product, let alone a liquor product, I was certainly up for the task and knew that my design expertise, careful research and perseverance would see me through to a successful end result that my client would ultimately be happy with,” says Cruz-Fisher.

Unlike the stereotypical illegal hooch that most might associate with “putting hair on your chest,” Onyx Moonshine is a product that is an amazingly smooth, refined spirit; one that is most deserving of a label that will allow it to rub elbows with other “top-shelf” liquors. Their confidence in choosing a firm with limited experience in the area of package design proved to be a winning choice as exhibited by the recent news that the liquor product, aside from likely satisfying even the most discerning high-end liquor aficionados, displayed prestigious enough to be the exclusive spirit choice for the celebrity gift bags at this year’s upcoming 54th Annual GRAMMY Awards®. This honor was bestowed on the heels of its inclusion in the celebrity gift bags for the 45th Annual Country Music Awards® last November. The label gained additional notoriety when it made the magazine cover of Label and Narrow Web’s Nov/Dec issue, highlighting an article regarding design, shelf appeal and the brand security of beer and spirit labels.

Most recently, Cruz-Fisher wrote “Why Quality Graphic Design Is Worth the Investment Even in a Troubled Economy” that was chosen by The Whiteboard, an online entrepreneurial blog, as a guest post article. The example in the article closely ties in with how Cruz-Fisher feels this label design allows the consumer to realize at a glance why this liquor product stands head and shoulders above the rest.
