Bourbon

Bourbon sits warmer and more saturated than Brown Alpaca, but it doesn't have the metallic confidence Copper carries. It's the kind of brown that feels lived-in, like it's picked up some rust and soil and decided to stay that way. Not performing. Not restrained. Just warm enough to work.

Reach for it in food and beverage packaging, editorial layouts, and dashboard design where you need a brown that has actual backbone but won't steal the show. It works as a card container, a button state, a sidebar, anywhere you want something grounded without being heavy. Against cream it settles naturally. Against warm whites it reads richer than Brown Sugar without Copper's luxury edge.

The catch: it's got enough saturation that at full-bleed scale it'll pull focus, so test before committing. Pair it with off-whites and warm grays and you're in solid territory. Cool neutrals next to it will bring out the undertone, which might be exactly right for your layout or might make everything feel slightly off. Know which you're after.
