The new deal will see Pan Am branded Gin, Vodka and pre-mixed cocktails distributed in Europe, US and Japan.<\/p>\n<p>Pan Am and its branding captures an age when flying was still thought to be a glamourous experience. Identified by its famous blue globe logo, first class service, jet-set style, and of course their white-capped pilots and unforgettable blue uniformed stewardesses, the airline is one of the most recognizable cultural icons of the 20th century.<\/p>\n<p>Ian McCulloch MD and Founder of Silent Pool Distillers says: \u201cWe are very excited to be able to bring this brand to market in a whole new way. With travel starting to resume and consumers forming much more romantic and nostalgic connections with their favourite destinations, there\u2019s no better time to connect them to a bygone era in a contemporary way. We believe that the Spirit of Pan Am will garner particular attention in key US airports, as well as important European and Asia hubs\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>Richard Pink MD at Pink Key Licensing says \u2018We are so pleased to have secured this partnership, we\u2019ve long thought that the Pan Am brand and its association with the glamour of a by-gone age deserves to have product that reflects this. It\u2019s got that \u2018Mad Men\u2019 feel of \u2018cocktails on a plane\u2019 about it, and in Silent Pool Distillers we\u2019ve found a partner who really understand what we are trying to achieve. We are very excited and can\u2019t wait to do the sampling!\u2019<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_54206\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-54206\" style=\"width: 767px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.dutyfreehunter.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/Pan-Am-RGV-7-211.jpg\"><img data-srcset=\"https:\/\/www.dutyfreehunter.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/Pan-Am-RGV-7-211-767x1024.jpg 767w, https:\/\/www.dutyfreehunter.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/Pan-Am-RGV-7-211-225x300.jpg 225w, https:\/\/www.dutyfreehunter.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/Pan-Am-RGV-7-211-768x1025.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.dutyfreehunter.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/Pan-Am-RGV-7-211-680x908.jpg 680w, https:\/\/www.dutyfreehunter.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/Pan-Am-RGV-7-211.jpg 800w\" decoding=\"async\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.dutyfreehunter.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/Pan-Am-RGV-7-211-767x1024.jpg\" class=\"wp-image-54206 size-large lazyload\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP\/\/\/yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7\" alt=\"Pan Am Rye Grain Vodka\"    sizes=\"(max-width: 767px) 100vw, 767px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-54206\" class=\"wp-caption-text\"><noscript><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-54206 size-large\" src=\"https:\/\/www.dutyfreehunter.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/Pan-Am-RGV-7-211-767x1024.jpg\" alt=\"Pan Am Rye Grain Vodka\" width=\"767\" height=\"1024\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.dutyfreehunter.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/Pan-Am-RGV-7-211-767x1024.jpg 767w, https:\/\/www.dutyfreehunter.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/Pan-Am-RGV-7-211-225x300.jpg 225w, https:\/\/www.dutyfreehunter.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/Pan-Am-RGV-7-211-768x1025.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.dutyfreehunter.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/Pan-Am-RGV-7-211-680x908.jpg 680w, https:\/\/www.dutyfreehunter.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/Pan-Am-RGV-7-211.jpg 800w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 767px) 100vw, 767px\" \/><\/noscript><\/a> Pan Am Rye Grain Vodka<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p><strong>Silent Pool Gin<\/strong><br \/>\nSilent Pool Distillers is an artisan distillery located on the Albury Estate, nestled at the foot of the Surrey Hills in the UK &#8211; also making it the local Gin of Duty Free Hunter!<\/p>\n<p>Its expert distillers create a wide range of hand-crafted spirits, including the multi award-winning Silent Pool Gin.
