Archie Rose on board with P&O
P&O Cruises Australia will ride the wave of craft distilleries emerging across the country, announcing a partnership with Sydney producer Archie Rose.
The line this week outlined plans to feature the brand’s products on board its latest ship Pacific Explorer when it makes its debut in Jun.
The distiller will be the focus of a new on board bar called The Bonded Store, offering the Archie Rose range of gins, vodkas and tailored spirits as well as hosting a series of hands-on experiences including whisky masterclasses and gin-blending sessions.
The distillery’s founder Will Edwards said P&O shared his passion for local seasonal ingredients and botanicals.
“We’re super excited... for us to be served on one of the top ships in the Pacific is incredible,” he said.
