One of Fiji’s biggest wholesalers has teamed up with one of Nadi’s most popular holiday destinations to bring in an exciting new product to the country.

Lark Whisky officially entered the Fiji market following an exclusive launch hosted by Crowne Plaza Fiji Nadi Bay Resort & Spa in partnership with the Motibhai Group of Companies.

Stewart Graham of Lark said it was an honour to introduce the Tasmanian single malt brand to Fiji, noting that Tasmania’s cool climate and natural environment play a major role in shaping the character of every whisky produced.

Twenty-nine guests who attended the tasting session last Friday at the resort’s 17.78 Whisky Bar sampled four expressions making their debut in the country.

Crowne Plaza Fiji Nadi Bay Resort & Spa General Manager Sudhir Yadav said the launch reflects the resort’s commitment to offering world-class beverage experiences.

He stated that 17.78 Whisky Bar continues to grow as a premier destination for whisky lovers in Fiji.

Motibhai Group of Companies Executive Director Nilesh Patel added the partnership with Lark supports Motibhai’s goal of bringing high-quality international brands to the local market
