Alcohol, Magnified.


White Russian

At first glance you probably think this is a post about 1980s fashion, but in actual fact it’s about everyone’s favorite reality avoiding device, alcohol. Although this alcohol is served crystallized on a slide, magnified over 1000 times and with a polarized light passed through it. As opposed to ‘in a glass with ice’.

A method devised by a scientist from Florida called Michael Davidson, clearly they have better stocked fridges than our office does. Originally he used them as patterns for neckties but ended up flogging the images to Bevshots. We’re sure most things look pretty crazy when magnified 1000 times, but it’s nice to visualize your favorite tipple looking more exciting than gin does.


Margarita


Tequila


Rosé


Vodka


Sake


Whiskey


Daiquiri


Chablis


Champagne


Pina Colada

    Now i know why i have a soft spot for Vodka! It’s beautiful, like a landscape. Pina Colada looks like butterfly wings, or peacock feathers.
    All i have to do now is find a way to do this myself.
