Pernod Ricard Travel Retail Pacific has partnered Heinemann Australia to launch its new Scotch Whisky Emporium at the departures duty-free store in Sydney International Airport. The Scotch Whisky Emporium is an immersive brand experience zone that highlights Pernod Ricard’s blended Scotch whiskies.
The Scotch Whisky Emporium houses premium whisky brands such as Chivas Regal, Royal Salute and Ballantine’s. According to a press release, the new emporium is the first multi-brand blended scotch whisky zone of its kind in the travel retail sector globally for Pernod Ricard.
