KOKO BUNI

Koko Buni is a lovely milk porter brewed and aged on toasted coconut, cocoa nibs from Athens' own Condor Chocolates, and coffee from our collaborators at 1000 faces. The name actually comes from the raw ingredients we use in the beer. Koko means coconut in Papiamento, a common language in parts of the Carribean, while Buni means coffee in Swahili, a common language in southeastern Africa. 

The flavors of this beer are rich and velvety like a warm camp fire, which also is the perfect setting to share with your friends. Mentally take a journey there or to whatever is your perfect autumn evening while enjoying Koko Buni.

I was proud design a beer that was sure to become a winter staple. I solicited the illustrative help of one of my local art heros, David Hale. Hale is an Athens, Georgia based illustrator who is gaining a cult following. The collaboration proved an award winning one.
