Bengaluru, May 2024: Paul John Whisky introduces its exclusive partnership with Avolta Duty Free to unveil an exclusive single cask release for global travellers at Kempegowda International Airport Bengaluru. This single cask single malt expression is bottled exclusively for global travel retail and is available at the T2 Duty-Free from 30th May. The cask is dedicated to the city of Bengaluru and the packaging has been thoughtfully designed, capturing the glorious spring blossoms of this famous Garden City. This release marks a significant milestone in the brand’s illustrious journey, epitomising its commitment to excellence and innovation in the world of whisky.
Crafted in the tropical coast of Goa, India, this exotic single-cask Unpeated Madeira expression embodies the essence of Paul John Whisky’s artistry. Aromas of delightful Christmas cake, dry plum, and Manuka honey laced with a lively orange zest lead to a blend of rich flavours, from sweet vanilla and dark chocolate to a subtle tinge of dry resin, culminating in a bold and gratifyingly oaky finish.
“We are honoured to launch our first exclusive single cask global travel release at Bengaluru International Airport Duty-Free with our partners Aolta, and to offer an elevated and unique whisky experience to travellers,” said Paul P. John, Chairman of John Distilleries Pvt Ltd. “The city holds a special place in our hearts, and partnering with one of the finest airports in the country is a true honour. This exclusive release is a tribute to Bengaluru that allows us to showcase the vibrant flavours of India in every sip. We are excited to present a taste of our finest creation, available exclusively at the airport’s Duty Free.”
With only 228 bottles, this non-age statement (NAS) single-cask release is priced at USD 300 per bottle. With a track record of over 305 international awards, including recognition as the Best Distillery and Best Master Distiller, Paul John Whisky continues to set the standard for excellence in the Indian whisky industry.
