Niño Santos Gets Psychedelic Without Being Cliche

Published

Niño Santo’s packaging, designed by Javier Garduño, leans into a psychedelic concept that captures the juice’s essence and its psychotropic ingredient, psilocybin. The optical illusion on the label creates a hypnotic effect, making the pattern appear to move when observed closely, visually echoing the product’s mind-altering nature.

Crafted with laser stamping, embossing, and intricate die-cutting, the label’s textured elements enhance its tactile appeal. A distinctive mushroom-inspired stopper crowns the bottle, tying together the theme and hinting at the mystic experience within. And while the bottle leans into a psychedelic design, it doesn’t feel cliche or cheesy. Instead, it’s certainly elevated.
