The Lakes Distillery unveils ‘Boundless’, a new single malt whisky designed exclusively for Global Travel Retail. Matured exclusively in the finest first-fill Oloroso sherry-seasoned oak casks and designed with the art of élevage, it is a single malt whisky rich with bold layers of flavour and complexity. Sarah Burgess, The Lakes’ Whiskymaker, commented, “For the first time at The Lakes, we have selected only the finest first-fill Oloroso casks to shape Boundless’ maturation. Rich and full-bodied, think baked fruits, plums, and indulgent walnuts. “Traditionally, our whisky is influenced by a variety of sherry-seasoned casks but for this travel retail exclusive, we focused solely on Oloroso – the backbone of The Lakes Single Malt. “Using the élevage technique, we have elevated the whisky’s flavour profile. Combining European and American oak, we have created a complex and bold single malt that encourages exploration and wonder. “With nuances of orange oil and dried fruits from the European oak, layered with delicate wood spice, toasted oak, and subtle notes of vanilla from the American oak, Boundless represents our ambition to push boundaries. And we are thrilled to partner with Duty Free Global to bring this special whisky to the travel retail market.” Available exclusively in the UK, Europe, Asia Pacific, Middle East, and Africa Global Travel Retail from Duty Free Global, The Lakes Boundless is a testament to their dedication to innovation and modern craftsmanship. Marking a significant milestone for the award-winning distillery, ‘Boundless’ reflects its commitment to quality and Duty Free Global’s mission to provide travellers with extraordinary new flavour experiences. Barry Geoghegan, founder of Duty Free Global, said, “As a leading new world whisky-maker, The Lakes breaks free from the traditional whisky conventions. With Boundless, they have created a single malt withexceptional depth. An invitation to explore a new frontier of flavour, the result is a style of whisky that is rich and opulent, which we’re confident our operators and consumers will love at TFWA Cannes.” Boundless is available from 29th September.

COMPASS BOX INTRODUCES TRAVEL-RETAIL LIMITED EDITION: THE TRAVELLING CIRCUS The First Travel Retail Exclusive by Compass Box, Inspired by the Magic & Grandeur of the Circus, Becomes Available at DFS Stores Within JFK and LAX Airports Inspired by The Circus, a Compass Box Limited Edition blend originally released in 2016, The Travelling Circus offers an enhanced peat presence courtesy of malt whisky from the Talisker Distillery and a parcel of peated blended Scotch whisky. The label design nods to the original The Circus, refreshing it through the filter of Futurism, which valorised movement and machines. To create The Travelling Circus, Compass Box Whiskymaking Director, James Saxon, assembled whiskies bold in flavor and rich in texture in order to capture the grandeur and vibrancy of a night at the circus. The majority of component whiskies have been aged in sherry casks, and The Travelling Circus exudes a deep fruitiness, with aromatic dry smoke and a silky flourish on the palate. Smokiness from malt whiskies from the Talisker and Caol Ila distilleries are layered with Speyside sherry character, finished with grain whisky from the now closed Port Dundas Distillery. “We are incredibly pleased with the arrival of The Travelling Circus,” says James Saxon. “The balance of sherry cask maturation and complex smokiness is something of a hallmark for Compass Box, and those who are fans of our whiskies will enjoy dissecting this latest composition. For those new to Compass Box, this is a globe-trotting introduction to the sorts of places we can explore when creatively combining high-quality Scotch whiskies.” Compass Box CEO, Maurice Doyle added, “we’re really excited about our growing partnership with DFS Group Limited and the USA has always been a priority market for us, so this feels like the perfect time to release an utterly delicious travel-retail exclusive to capture the hearts and taste-buds of those travelling through LAX and JFK”. "As the world's leading luxury travel retailer, DFS is excited to exclusively launch this special release of Compass Box in our North America airport stores, one of the key markets in our global network. Compass Box’s forward-thinking, disruptive approach to whisky aligns perfectly with DFS' commitment attracting new consumers to the category,’ said Daniel Licari DFS Senior Director, Merchandising. “By offering innovative brands like Compass Box, we're able to craft unique shopping experiences that introduce a diversified whiskey assortment to the next generation of enthusiasts.”
