UK
Becomes New Distributor For The Glenrothes
|
"Cutty
Sark International has had a fruitful business relationship with
Gordon & MacPhail" said Luke Tegner, The Glenrothes Brand
Director. "We remain good friends but it is now time for us to
continue separately to focus on our respective core businesses. We
are delighted with the appointment of Maxxium UK and look forward to
further success for The Glenrothes in the UK."
According to
Huw Pennell, Managing Director of Maxxium UK; "the distribution
of The Glenrothes is an important addition to the Maxxium premium
spirits range; it is a brand we have long respected and we are very
excited to have been chosen to represent it in the UK. Quality is at
the heart of the Maxxium portfolio, and we see great potential for
The Glenrothes, particularly in the on-trade and within specialist
whisky retailers."
The
Glenrothes, founded in 1879, is one of the fastest growing single
malt whisky brands in UK. Following great success in the USA and
Spain, The Glenrothes Select Reserve launched in the UK in October
2005 to widespread acclaim from trade and consumer alike. Maxxium UK
will manage the full range of products including The Glenrothes
Select Reserve, The Glenrothes Vintages 1991 and 1985.
