John Distilleries Pvt Ltd’s Paul John Whisky, renowned for its exceptional award-winning Indian single malts, proudly introduces its exclusive partnership with Avolta Duty Free to unveil an exclusive single cask release for global travellers at Kempegowda International Airport Bengaluru.

Crafted in the tropical coast of Goa, India, this exotic single-cask Unpeated Madeira expression embodies the essence of Paul John Whisky’s artistry.
