At SmoothEdge, we're always looking for innovative ways to reduce waste and create something beautiful. That's why we are beyond excited to announce our collaboration with Cuckoo & Brindle Distillery – a partnership rooted in sustainability, craftsmanship, and the spirit of innovation.
Upcycling at Its Best
Cuckoo & Brindle Distillery, known for its exceptional craft spirits, produces a range of artisanal bottles. However, like many distilleries, they occasionally have bottles that don’t quite make the grade due to small imperfections. These bottles are often referred to as "seconds" – they might have slight flaws like bubbles or misprints, but they still hold the same premium spirit within. Instead of letting these bottles go to waste, we’ve teamed up to give them a second life.
At SmoothEdge, we take these beautifully flawed bottles and upcycle them into stunning tumblers and candles. The bottles are carefully cleaned, repurposed, and transformed into candles. Each piece is unique, with its own character that tells a story of sustainability and craftsmanship.
From Bottle to Candle
Once the bottles are upcycled into tumblers, we fill them with eco-friendly soy wax to create beautiful, sustainable candles. Our soy wax is 100% natural and biodegradable, making it a perfect choice for those looking to enjoy a cleaner burn. We blend our wax with carefully chosen fragrances, creating a sensory experience that complements the story of the bottle.
Each candle is hand-poured with love, ensuring that every piece is of the highest quality. Whether it's the cozy scent of Dark Honey & Tobacco or the smooth notes of Amber Noir, these candles bring a little piece of nature and sustainability into your home.
A Beautiful Partnership
This collaboration is more than just about creating beautiful candles – it's about making a real difference. By upcycling the bottles from Cuckoo & Brindle Distillery, we're helping to reduce waste and giving these "seconds" a second chance.
By choosing a SmoothEdge x Cuckoo & Brindle Distillery candle, you’re not only supporting local artisans and small businesses – you're also supporting a more sustainable way of living. It's a candle that tells a story, one that's filled with character, craftsmanship, and care for the planet.
