The partnership with World Duty Free follows the release of a limited-edition 26yo Glen Scotia Single Cask exclusively at Edinburgh Airport last year.
Loch Lomond Group Global Travel Retail Managing Director André de Almeida said: “We’re very excited to be introducing Glen Scotia in partnership with World Duty Free. The Glen Scotia 1832 Campbeltown whisky alongside the classic Glen Scotia 16yo single malt will provide a true taste of the distillery’s distinctive and authentic character.
“The launch forms part of our ambitious worldwide roll-out of our global travel retail range and marks a significant milestone for Glen Scotia, as it’s the first time the brand will be available in airports right across the UK.”
World Duty Free Commercial Category Manager Kathryn Kindness said: “The launch of Glen Scotia is very exciting for us as it now ensures a Campbeltown single malt offering in each of our UK World of Whiskies stores so all of our consumers will have the opportunity to discover a region not previously represented.”
