Due to the limited amount of Deanston Single Malt available it will only be available in US duty-free stores…
Distell, the South African-based wine and spirits leader, says it will reinforce its commitment to the travel retail channel with the addition of Deanston Highland Single Malt to its US travel retail portfolio. Deanston will be introduced at the Summit of the Americas in Orlando later this month.
This will be the initial entry of the award-winning single malt to the duty-free channel. It will join Bunnahabhain, Distell’s popular Islay single malt on the shelves of travel retail shops in US international airports, border stores and on cruise lines beginning in mid-summer.
Tony Suarez, regional business manager for Distell Global Travel Retail in the Americas, said that four expressions of Deanston will be on display for US buyers at the Summit of the Americas including Deanston Virgin Oak, Deanston 15 Year Old, and Deanston 18 Year Old. Suarez noted that the Deanston 15 Year Old is a very rare Scotch in that it is a limited release organic malt certified by the Organic Food Federation.
“There is a real thirst for aged whiskies in the world right now and it is particularly keen in travel retail. Today’s international travellers are knowledgeable and demanding of authentic premium products and we feel Deanston’s Highland Single Malts will prove to be very popular with fine spirit aficionados travelling internationally in the United States,” Suarez said.
He added that due to the limited amount of Deanston Single Malt on hand, it will only be available in US travel retail at this time. Deanston Highland Single Malt is hand crafted in the Central Highlands of Scotland at the Deanston’s Distillery which is housed in a former cotton mill that dates back to the late eighteenth century.
