Personalised Gin and Vodka Bottles: How Custom Labels Work
Share
Updated November 2026
A personalised bottle is a bottle of gin, vodka or another spirit with a label made for one person or one event. At Newy Distillery you design the label online and we print and apply it at our distillery in Newcastle NSW. Custom label orders are printed and shipped within 2–5 business days, then standard delivery takes about 2–8 business days.
Custom label or custom blend?
There are two kinds of personalised spirit in Australia. With a custom blend, you choose the botanicals and the distillery makes something new. With a custom label, you choose a spirit from the range and put your own words on it.
We do custom labels. That means you can taste the gin or vodka first, at the cellar door or from a mini, and you know what's going in the bottle.
How it works
- Choose your spirit. Vodka, gin, whiskey and more.
- Design the label. Use our label designer to add names, dates or a message, or upload your own design.
- Check it. Read the spelling twice, preview it, then add it to your order.
- We do the rest. We print and apply the label in-house at the distillery.
What does a custom label cost?
A custom label is $33.99, added to the price of the bottle.
How long does it take?
Allow up to 13 business days from order to door: 2–5 to print and ship, and about 2–8 for standard delivery. Carriers can run slower in peak season, so leave extra room before a birthday or Christmas.
Which option suits what you're doing?
| You need | Best fit | Details |
|---|---|---|
| One bottle for a birthday, thank-you or Christmas | Custom label | Design it yourself online |
| Wedding favours or event minis | 50ml custom bottles | Packs of 10 to 200 bottles. Labelling is included. Our team designs it and sends a proof for approval. |
| Your logo on bottles for clients, staff or events | White label | Tell us your brand, rough quantity and timing |
What should you put on the label?
- Keep it short. A name, a date and one line reads better than a paragraph.
- Check names and dates with someone else before you order.
- For a wedding, tell us your colours or theme and send any inspiration you have.
