Gorillaz launch limited edition vodka bottle with Smirnoff
Damon Albarn’s Gorillaz have teamed up with Smirnoff to launch a their own bottle of limited-edition vodka
Gorillaz have teamed up with award-winning alcohol brand Smirnoff to launch a new bottle of limited-edition vodka.
Damon Albarn’s virtual band, who have sold over 27 million records worldwide, helped design the exclusive Smirnoff x Gorillaz bottle that’s available from today.
The colourful print on the custom bottle features Gorillaz band members Murdoc, 2D, Noodle and Russel, who can be seen raising a glass to the collaboration.
The ‘True Originals’ project also sees the group’s characters create their own cocktail recipes including Murdoc’s Vodka Murdini – a spin on the classic vodka martini – and Russel’s Smirnoff Brooklyn, which pays homage to the vodka Manhattan and Russel’s love of chilli.
Speaking of the collaboration, Murdoc said: “Nothing to see here folks — just the OG vodka brand teaming up with the OG virtual band. Cheers Smirnoff — pleasure doing business with you! I’m not usually one for labels, but this is a beauty!”
Mark Jarman, Head of Smirnoff GB, added: “Smirnoff is built on the spirit of originality and individuality in all forms; Gorillaz are true originals who dare to push the boundaries in everything they do. We are thrilled to be working with the band to continue creating originality and disrupting the creativity of cocktails.”
