The pop-up spotlights Fettercairn 14-Year-Old, 17-Year-Old and 25-Year-Old — a travel retail exclusive collection that showcases its unique tropical house style at different maturations
Highland single malt Scotch whisky brand Fettercairn has unveiled a new pop-up at Taiwan Taoyuan International Airport Terminal 2, in exclusive partnership with EVERRICH Duty Free.
Running from January 1 to June 2026, the activation marks a major milestone in the brand’s strategy to deepen consumer connection, accelerate premiumization, and drive awareness and conversion within the key Asia Pacific travel retail market. It also reflects the channel’s growing role as a destination for shoppers looking to discover unique, high-quality products that are available only in select locations globally.
The pop-up spotlights Fettercairn 14-Year-Old, 17-Year-Old and 25-Year-Old — a travel retail exclusive collection that showcases Fettercairn’s unique tropical house style at different maturations — alongside the house’s prestigious Rare & Aged range, including 28-, 40- and 50-Year Old bottlings.
First introduced during the distillery’s bicentennial celebrations, the travel retail-exclusive collection reflects the brand’s commitment to craftsmanship, innovation and flavor-led whisky making. The range is non-chill filtered, natural colour and available in a 70-cl format.
Presenting Highland provenance to Taiwan
Located in a high-traffic position adjacent to the airport’s luxury retail area, the 18.85-square-meter activation introduces travelers to Fettercairn’s distinctive new “Garden of Scotland” concept,which evokes the brand’s Highland provenance.
For over 200 years, the Fettercairn distillery has been located within the heart of a thriving agricultural community in Aberdeenshire — a region known as the ‘Garden of Scotland.’ Nestled in the foothills of the Cairngorm mountains, fertile land, lush forests and crystal clear water come together to create the conditions for something distinctly different.
The Taiwan airport pop-up brings a strong sense of place to the airport environment, effectively transporting shoppers to the Scottish Highlands. Its design features intricate copper structures adorned with flora and fauna motifs and cutouts, symbolizing the close relationship between the distillery and its surrounding landscape.
At the heart of the installation, a dramatic concave copper still frames the brand’s single malt range, referencing Fettercairn’s unique copper cooling ring technology. This distinctive process, which drenches the stills with cool mountain water from the Cairngorms, allows only the lightest vapours to rise, resulting in the characteristically bright, tropical flavor profile that defines the brand’s signature style.
A key focus of the activation is consumer engagement through immersive, flavor-led discovery, including guided tastings of the Fettercairn 14-Year-Old and 17-Year-Old expressions. The pop-up also incorporates a sensory display that highlights Fettercairn’s distinctive flavor notes. Dried pineapple, coconut and mango are presented as aromatic cues, helping consumers to connect more deeply with the whisky’s unique flavor profile.
Fettercairn Distillery Manager Stewart Walker comments, “At Fettercairn we are very proud of our local area and the produce that comes from this beautiful part of Scotland. I believe that the area is a true inspiration for us at the distillery, and I want every bottle of Fettercairn — wherever in the world it is sold — to tell the story and paint a picture of where it was created in the Garden of Scotland.”
Whyte & Mackay Managing Director UK, Europe & GTR Mike Greggs says, “We are proud to bring this new ‘Garden of Scotland’ pop-up concept to Taiwan in partnership with EVERRICH, and to introduce travelers to the distinctive character of Fettercairn in such an engaging way.
“Taiwan is an important and dynamic market for premium Scotch whisky, and this activation allows us to strengthen brand visibility while creating meaningful connections with shoppers through storytelling and sense of place. By combining education, tasting and immersive design, we aim to build lasting awareness of the Fettercairn portfolio and drive further growth for the brand in the region.”
EVERRICH Duty Free Vice President of Merchandising Patricia Wang adds, “We are delighted to partner with Fettercairn at Taiwan Airport to launch this exclusive pop-up, offering travelers a fresh premium whisky experience. Beyond retail, EVERRICH leverages category insight and selection expertise to curate immersive journeys. As demand for limited-edition and collectible whiskies grows in Taiwan, we work with leading distilleries to identify distinctive expressions that reflect evolving traveler preferences.
“Together, we have created a retail destination that celebrates craftsmanship, innovation and the unique story behind the Fettercairn brand.”
