Cotswolds Distillery has announced the launch of a new global travel retail exclusive at Birmingham Airport. This limited-edition single cask whisky will be available in a 70 cl format at an RRP of £99.

Made with 100% locally grown barley from the Cotswolds, this limited-edition single malt whisky was matured in a first-fill reconditioned red wine cask. Filled on the 20th April 2018 and aged full-term at the distillery in the Cotswolds, the expression was bottled from cask number 2246 on-site on the 30th January 2026 at 61.9% ABV.

There are 275 bottles available and each bottle is individually numbered and presented in a luxury display carton. This new release will sit alongside the distillery’s core products which are already listed in Birmingham Airport: Cotswolds Single Malt Whisky, Cotswolds Reserve Single Malt Whisky, and Cotswolds Dry Gin which are all available in one litre formats. During the month of April, the suite of Cotswolds Distillery products will be featured in several displays in the airport and available for travellers to sample.

Eve Fifer, Commercial Director U.K., Avolta, commented: “We are proud to be the exclusive global travel retail partner for this single cask release from Cotswolds Distillery. Our customers at Birmingham Airport are always looking for something distinctive and memorable, and this limited-edition delivers exactly that.”

There is huge momentum within the English Whisky category and as the world’s best-selling English Single Malt Whisky producer, we will continue to fuel this growth.”
