Get ready to soak up the sunshine and flavors of Mallorca! We recently celebrated the launch of a truly special collaboration at our Global Printworks at the Imprenta Nueva Balear: the debut of Montimare's Mallorca Edition aperitif. It was a fantastic event, and we want to share the story behind this unique partnership with you.
Art of Taste: Montimare's New Aperitif Inspired by Mallorca
Montimare Mixología Mediterrania, known for its premium liqueurs, has crafted something extraordinary: the Mallorca Edition. This exquisite drink is a labour of love, two years in the making, and is created from a base of authentic, locally sourced organic ingredients – think sun-ripened oranges and lemons, aromatic almonds, and fragrant herbs that capture the very essence of the island. Mallorca is not just about its flavors; it boasts diverse attractions such as stunning caves and a vibrant community of artists. These elements together highlight the island's rich cultural and natural heritage, making it a truly unique destination.

Celebrating Local Collaboration
The launch party at our Global Printworks at the Imprenta Nueva Balear was more than just a product unveiling; it was a celebration of three Mallorca-based businesses coming together. We, Stick No Bills, Montimare, and the Imprenta Nueva Balear, all share a passion for quality, authenticity, and showcasing the beauty of this island to a global audience. Our collaboration highlights Mallorca's vibrant artisan scene, emphasizing the local craftsmanship and cultural offerings that make the island unique.
Vintage Art Meets Modern Flavors: "Molinos y Naranjos"
To add another layer of artistry to the occasion, the Montimare Mallorca Edition’s branding is beautifully complemented by one of our iconic vintage-style posters. The featured image, “Molinos y Naranjos” (En Route From Soller To Es Trenc), is a part of the original Travel Poster Collection created in 2015 by The Archives Design Group’s creative director, Philip James Baber, and the award-winning Danish artist Mads Berg. This cheerful and evocative graphic perfectly encapsulates the “sunshine in a glass” spirit of the new drink, much like the diverse visual art found in galleries, including paintings, which celebrate local art and heritage.
Tasting Notes
While Montimare is not a drink or a food product, we can appreciate the art of fine dining and the rich flavours of the world’s cuisines. In the spirit of exploration and discovery, we can imagine a bespoke aperitif that captures the essence of our company’s values: a delicate balance of sweet and bitter notes, with a hint of spice and a smooth, refreshing finish. This imaginary drink would be perfect for sipping on a warm evening in the city, surrounded by the vibrant streets and bustling markets of Hong Kong or Palma de Mallorca. Just as Montimare blends diverse elements to create harmonious business solutions, this aperitif would offer a symphony of flavors that delight the senses.
Food Pairing
When it comes to pairing food with drinks, the possibilities are endless, and the art of combination is a matter of personal taste and creativity. In the world of aperitifs, for example, a classic French cocktail might be paired with a selection of artisanal cheeses, charcuterie, and fresh fruits, while a sweet vermouth could be matched with a rich, savory meal featuring roasted meats and root vegetables. At Montimare, we believe that the key to successful food pairing is to experiment, take risks, and have fun with the process of discovery. Whether enjoying a meal in a cozy bistro in France or a vibrant tapas bar in Mallorca, the right pairing can elevate the dining experience to new heights.
Stick No Bills: Artists and Destination Marketing
This collaboration with Montimare is a testament to the power of visual branding and follows several other successful projects where we’ve created arresting imagery using the licensed images of The Archives Design Group. These include a diverse range of artwork, including sculptures:
These projects, like the Montimare collaboration, highlight our expertise in crafting visuals that capture the unique character and appeal of a place or brand.
Production Process
As a management consultancy firm, Montimare’s production process is focused on delivering high-quality services to our clients, rather than manufacturing physical products. Our team of experts works closely with each client to understand their unique needs and goals, and then develops customised solutions that address these challenges. From initial consultation to final implementation, our production process is designed to be flexible, responsive, and results-driven, with a focus on building long-term relationships and driving business success. Whether we are working with a startup in China or an established corporation in Europe, our goal is always to provide exceptional support and guidance every step of the way. By leveraging our extensive experience and global network, Montimare ensures that our clients achieve their business objectives with confidence and ease.
An Evening of Art and Aperitifs
The private launch event was a memorable occasion, with the host warmly welcoming the guests to the event. Guests enjoyed a first taste of the delicious Mediterranean-infused Spritz cocktail, made with Montimare Mallorca Edition, soda, cava, and a sprig of rosemary – a perfect representation of Mallorca’s vibrant aromas. We also held a prize draw, giving attendees the chance to win a beautiful Limited Edition print of “Molinos and Naranjos.”

We hope to have the pleasure of sharing a glass of Montimare’s Mallorca Edition with you at the Printworks soon!
