The partnership with Premium Spirits has been a crucial element in navigating this market, especially considering their previous success with El Tequileño.

Over the recent summer, Charter Brands has also successfully introduced Agitator Whisky to France, Poland, and Ukraine, further showcasing its international appeal.
Gerard Van Andel, CEO of Premium Spirits, remarked on the unique appeal of Agitator Whiskies. He highlighted their unique and bold presence in a market traditionally dominated by whisky from Scotland, Ireland, or the USA.
