HANNAH GLASSON
FOUNDER, INTUNE DRINKS

“Working with Crucible to create INTUNE was seamless, inspiring and fun. Our brief to the team was to develop a range of drinks that make CBD taste great (hard in itself) and can be enjoyed by everyone (quite the challenge).

They nailed it.”

JENNY McCURRY
COMMUNICATIONS DIRECTOR, SMARTS

“Working with Crucible to bring to life the Taste of the Future Flavour Laboratory was a brilliant experience.

We approached Stu, Trudi and the team with the challenge of co-creating a cutting-edge flavour laboratory that would fit into A Taste of the Future; our global first interactive, innovation space at Diageo’s World Class Bartender of the Year Global Finals – the biggest bartending competition in the world.

A Taste of the Future was designed to give guests a sneak peek of some of the near future drinks experiences that tap into the hottest trends in culture, and we were not disappointed! Stu and the team at Crucible created an exciting programme of drinks using Diageo’s Reserve brands and a plethora of experimental techniques to extract and showcase delicious flavours. The end result saw our World Class attendees treated to a fantastic live flavour demonstration providing intrigue, excitement and creativity as well as incredible taste experiences over the two days of finals in Glasgow.”

FUNKIN

“I always enjoy working with the team at Crucible for their unique approach to project briefs. They helped us deliver the final of our Funkin Innovation Champion bartender competition, where we spent the day educating our finalists whilst challenging them in a fun and relaxed environment.

The feedback was very positive, with even those not winning feeling as though they had gained something from the experience.”

CHRIS BALDWIN aka MUNKY
CRYSTAL HEAD

“I’ve known Stu for almost 2 decades and he’s a stand-up guy.  We also have enough rated 18 stories about each other to ensure mutually assured destruction.

That being said, he has been invaluable in helping us to create the Creative Spirit session we do with Crystal Head Vodka and these sessions are a vital part of our on-trade strategy; they have helped us in more ways than I care to mention and will continue to do so and they are now an integral part of the Crystal Head brand. He thinks on a different creative, cosmic plane than anyone else that I have ever had the pleasure of calling a friend and been able to be paid to work with.

Other than that don’t get him wet and don’t feed him Buckfast after midnight.”
