Old Elk Distillery has settled a federal trademark infringement lawsuit that alleged the rabbit logo used on bottles of Fort Collins spiritmaker’s Nooku Bourbon Cream was a copy cat. Rabbit Hole Spirits of Louisville, Ky., claimed Old Elk pilfered its leaping-rabbit trademark to confuse whiskey and gin lovers into buying the blended spirit called Nooku, an Arapaho language word for snowshoe hare. Logo provided by Old Elk Distillery The terms of the agreement have not been disclosed. Rabbit Hole was seeking compensation for all profits Old Elk received while using “infringing rabbit marks.” However, Old Elk still displays a white rabbit with a golden scarf on its Nooku Bourbon Cream bottles and proclaims “this rabbit has teeth.” Old Elk spokeswoman Nancy Fishgold said Wednesday that both companies will keep their logos the way they are without any changes. “Per the terms of their agreement, the two distilleries have agreed to a mutually acceptable coexistence,” she said.
