QR Codes on Bottles That Tell the Story Behind Them
A bottle label is small and curved. A QR code links it to recipes, origins and recycling in one scan.

Bottles are gripped, turned and often wet, with curved labels that leave little room, so a QR code is a neat way to link to tasting notes, sourcing or recycling without crowding the label. The code should sit on the flattest part of the curve with strong contrast, and a waterproof or under-laminate print keeps it scannable through condensation.
On bottles, keep the code static, high contrast and linked to a stable destination. It will keep scanning without expiry and without scan tracking from us.
Why it works
Tell the product story
Link to origin, tasting notes or how it is made beyond the small curved label.
Handles curve and damp
Placed on the flattest area with a durable print, the code scans even with condensation.
Recipes and pairings
Send buyers to cocktail ideas, recipes or serving tips that earn more use.
Recycling made clear
Point to disposal and refill guidance to support sustainability claims.

Common questions
Should the code go on the bottle or the label?
On a flat section of the label. Printing directly on curved glass distorts the pattern beyond rescue.
What about bottles stored ice-cold?
Condensation droplets scatter the camera light. A matte laminate sheds water and keeps scans fast.
