Shoppers can explore bestsellers and travel retail exclusives as well as browse and discover the unique history behind Diageo\u2019s Single Malt and Blended Whiskies.<\/p>\n

In addition to enriching product descriptions and brand history, customers are guided to their perfect whisky through flavour-led shopping and offered delicious highball cocktail recipes along with recommended whiskies. The adaptive, mobile-optimised user interface provides a smooth experience across all iOS devices while innovative features such as interactive carousel sliders and expandable buttons allow users to seamlessly navigate through the store.<\/p>\n
