Announcing the Hendrick’s Gin x BoomCase collaboration!

Now available in our online store. Read the full press release below:

Hendrick’s Gin is pleased to announce its partnership with The BoomCase, maker of the original rechargeable vintage suitcase boom box, which this week unveiled a one-of- a-kind speaker system that includes a full Hendrick’s Gin Tea Set. The collaboration embodies the eccentricity of the world-renowned gin brand, combined with the innovation of The BoomCase, creating the most unusual electric speaker fit for the most refined tippler and appreciator of the art of entertainment.

Since 2009, The BoomCase founder Dominic Odbert has been creating speaker systems out of
vintage suitcases at his boutique studio in California, crafting a most unique product that blends imaginative sound engineering and superior design. No stranger to curious fusions, Hendrick’s Gin itself is made in tiny batches by a single stillman using a unique distillation technique. With a distinctive blend of botanicals and infusion of cucumber and rose petals, Hendrick’s has captivated the attention and hearts of bartenders and bon vivants alike.

As The BoomCase strives to further push the innovation of sound design while preserving the
heritage of the past, and Hendrick’s continues to surprise and delight its drinkers with the art of the unusual, the two entities are an impeccable match for brilliant revelry.

The limited edition collaboration, of which only 15 BoomCases will be available for purchase, will feature a 100 watt amplifier powering two 6.5″ woofers, one 5″ midrange speaker and four dome tweeters, offering full balanced sound in a portable package. The rechargeable lithium battery provides over 18+ hours of playtime per charge through an auxiliary cable or wirelessly via Bluetooth. The structure itself is handmade from birch wood and features leather trim, harris tweed and steel hardware. In addition to the speaker system, a Hendrick’s Gin Tea Set consisting of one tea pot, two tea cups, two saucers and a placeholder for a 750-ml. bottle (bottle not included) are all incorporated to aid in the celebration.

‘The collaboration between Hendrick’s Gin and The BoomCase was created with the aim to provide
its recipients with an extraordinary experience that can transcend the test of time, as only music and merriment can do. We hope that this most unusual way to toast the town while listening to tunes will be an absolute delight to its owner,” said Fred Parent, Hendrick’s Gin Ambassador.
