Caorunn Gin Master’s Cut is bottled in the same five-sided design as the original expression and is available from July in UK airports at an RRP of £39.99 (US$52).
It was officially launched at the VIP opening of the ‘Caorunn Summer Garden’ at Hotel du Vin in Edinburgh.

The brand unveiled a redesign in January this year, with a narrower bottle that retains the pentagonal base.
