Emirates Revamps First And Business Class Spirits Selection

Emirates Revamps First And Business Class Spirits Selection

Emirates has introduced a refined and expanded portfolio of top-tier spirits and liqueurs, redefining the inflight bar experience for 2025.

Across all cabins and global routes, guests are treated to complimentary pours of world-renowned whiskies, cognacs, gins, vodkas, and artisanal liqueurs, underscoring Emirates’ commitment to luxury hospitality.

This curated upgrade is the result of a dedicated in-house beverage team, who collaborated for over two years with international distilleries and suppliers. Their aim: to hand-select a bespoke, luxury spirits menu that rivals leading five-star hotels.

Travelers can now choose from more than 35 new spirits and liqueurs, complementing Emirates’ acclaimed wine cellar, which features over 90 labels of fine wines and prestigious champagnes.

Among the highlights are rare, small-batch producers alongside iconic brands. Emirates continues its partnership with Hennessy, offering the revered Hennessy Paradis in First Class, and, on select flagship routes, the ultra-premium Hennessy Paradis Impérial—one of the world’s most exclusive cognacs.

First Class guests also enjoy elevated selections such as The Dalmore King Alexander III, renowned for its unique six-cask maturation, Belvedere Single Estate Rye Vodka, Johnnie Walker Blue Label, and the award-winning Ron Zacapa Centenario XO rum from Guatemala.

Business Class travelers, including those unwinding at the Emirates A380 Onboard Lounge, can savor Glenfiddich 15 Year Old Solera Reserve, the distinguished Woodford Reserve Kentucky Bourbon, the artisanal Sipsmith London Dry Gin, and other premium spirits.

Economy Class passengers are not left behind, with complimentary choices like Dewar’s White Label Scotch, Beefeater London Dry Gin, Russian Standard Vodka, Jack Daniel’s Tennessee Whiskey, and Bacardi Carta Blanca—the world’s most decorated rum.

Reflecting regional tastes, Emirates continues to serve Amarula Cream Liqueur across all cabins, celebrating international flavors.

The airline’s cocktail program has also been reinvigorated, with classic favorites such as the Negroni, Old Fashioned, and Aperol Spritz now available onboard for a sophisticated inflight aperitif.

Based on recent passenger data, Jack Daniel’s remains the most requested tipple in Economy, Sipsmith gin is the Business Class favorite, while in First Class, the Chivas Royal Salute 21 Year Old whisky leads the list of guest preferences.
