Johnnie Walker Blue Label Ghost and Rare Port Dundas is the fifth release in the award-winning series and explores the character of exceptional and rare whiskies from one of world’s most famous Grain Whisky distilleries, the Glasgow “ghost” distillery of Port Dundas. The renowned distillery, built in 1811 on the banks of the Forth and Clyde Canal, has shipped its distinct Scotch across the world for nearly 200 years.

With this shopping experience we want to encourage and enable flavor exploration, creating moments to remember during this festive season.

We have worked with Changi Airport to bring this experience to Asia PAC, offering shoppers a personalized, multisensory, tasting and gifting studio, that will not only appeal to the luxury consumer, but also a new generation of buyer, which is really thrilling for the future.”

The new installation focuses on Johnnie Walker’s luxury gifting accessories including gift bags and personalized luggage tags. Changi Rewards and iShopChangi members can also avail themselves of a free Johnnie Walker Blue duffel bag with any purchase of Johnnie Walker Blue Label.

The hotly anticipated new Elusive Expressions Special Releases Scotch Whisky Collection, will also be available in the studio along with gift offerings from Baileys and Tanqueray, for the first time in APAC Travel Retail including delicious Chocolate Truffles and Tanqueray jellies.

Teo Chew Hoon, Managing Director of Airside Concessions at Changi Airport Group, added, “At Changi Airport, we delight in connecting lives, especially during the festive season, as friends and families travel miles across the globe to be with their loved ones for the holidays. As such, we are excited to collaborate with Diageo Global Travel on the Johnnie Walker Blue Label Ghost and Rare Port Dundas gifting studio at Terminal 3 to invite travelers into the season of giving and merry making, and experience award-winning luxury whiskies.”
