UK. London Heathrow Airport is now home to the world’s first Glenmorangie boutique, introduced by Moët Hennessy Travel Retail in partnership with Avolta (previously Dufry).
‘The Wondrous Glenmorangie Boutique’ in Terminal 2 features rare whiskies that are exclusive to the boutique. These include Glenmorangie Tuiga and Sonoma-Cutrer Reserve 25 Year Old – both currently available for purchase.
Visitors to the boutique can experience mixology at the bar with complementary made-to-measure biscuit pairings. Exclusive bottle-engraving services are available for premium expressions, which allows travellers to customise a bespoke holiday gift.
Moët Hennessy Travel Retail will add more exclusive offerings soon such as the Glenmorangie 25 Year Old Pommard Cask Finish. The expression combines flavours of peach, pineapple, damson and plum, with notes of oak bark, sourdough bread and roasted chestnuts.
The boutique design features flowing lines that intertwine with oak wood, which is reminiscent of whisky barrels, while the copper accents pay homage to the stills. The brand’s signature orange mingles with other vibrant colours, echoing Glenmorangie’s ‘follow your wonder’ ethos.
The boutique space, which reflects the creativity of Glenmorangie Head of Distilling and Whisky Creation Dr Bill Lumsden, also invites passengers to appreciate the artistry behind each Glenmorangie whisky.
Moët Hennessy Travel Retail commented: “As travellers embark on their journeys, they are invited to immerse themselves in Glenmorangie’s whimsical world, which reflects the brand’s legacy of crafting the extraordinary – making every experience ‘Delicious by Design’.
“This landmark opening will be celebrated in the coming months with a major event that will bring Glenmorangie’s distinctive story to life.” ✈
