Despite being around for centuries, the cashew or coconut-based liquor called Feni is relatively unknown outside its birthplace of Goa, India.

Dona Maria - a small, family-run Feni bottler - approached Marx Design to develop a modernised take on this traditional spirit. The word Cazulo, which means "firefly", lead us to create the central logotype: a stylised firefly radiating a warming glow - much like the feeling when Feni is consumed." We felt it was very important that the Cazulo remained authentic to the essence of Goa, so we identified patterns and colours from the region and infused them into the design." Similarly, the bottle's shape is heavily influenced by tradition. Its form is inspired by a blown glass Feni bottle over a century old.
