SirDavis, a new American whiskey created by Moët Hennessy and Beyoncé Knowles-Carter, has been introduced to travel retail with DFS at major US airports. Travelers can now find the premium whiskey at duty-free stores in John F. Kennedy (JFK), Los Angeles (LAX), and San Francisco (SFO) International airports. Special tasting sessions are available for passengers at DFS locations within JFK and LAX.
SirDavis whiskey is a tribute to Beyoncé’s great-grandfather, Davis Hogue, a farmer and moonshiner during Prohibition. The design of the bottle reflects the Art Deco style of Hogue’s era, with its sleek, ribbed glass creating an impression of luxury and elegance.
Crafted by Master Distiller Dr. Bill Lumsden, the whiskey features a blend of 51% rye and 49% malted barley, with secondary maturation in sherry casks. This unique combination offers a smooth texture and a flavor profile reminiscent of Japanese and Scotch whiskies while maintaining the robust character of American rye.
The whiskey’s release in travel retail follows an “overwhelming” pre-order period that began on August 20. SirDavis is now available not only in airports but also in domestic retail across select US states, including California, New York, Texas, and more. The brand has also expanded internationally, with distribution in London, Paris, and Tokyo, and additional markets planned.
SirDavis is designed to stand out on shelves, both in its packaging and flavor. The bottle’s minimal branding and striking design set a new standard for modern luxury spirits. Along with a rich flavor experience, SirDavis offers a nod to tradition and innovation, aiming to appeal to both seasoned whiskey drinkers and new enthusiasts.
Travelers passing through DFS stores can also enjoy exclusive promotions, including a Gift-With-Purchase for DFS Circle App members, and can order the whiskey online for convenient pickup.
For a signature experience, try [Honey Bee], a cocktail paying homage to the brand's founder and crafted using SirDavis American Whisky, fresh lemon juice, and honey syrup, garnished with honeycomb.

The Formula 1 weekend in Miami just got a high-powered desi twist as Rana Daggubati, Indian actor and entrepreneur, lit up the city’s nightlife with his Loca Loka tequila crew at an exclusive party that blended global glam with Indian flair.
Held during one of the most anticipated weekends on Miami’s social calendar, the event saw Rana rubbing shoulders with hip-hop legend 50 Cent, rap star Flo Rida, and Oscar-winning actor Cuba Gooding Jr. Photos and videos from the night captured Rana enjoying the vibe, sharing light moments and tequila shots with global icons, and enjoying a surprise performance by 50 Cent that took the energy up a notch.
Rana, co-owner of the premium tequila brand Loca Loka, was in Miami promoting the label alongside partners Anirudh Ravichander, India's music sensation and Sree Harsha Vadlamudi, a known serial entrepreneur. The Loca Loka bash became a hotspot for networking, celebration, and showcasing how Indian creativity is making waves on a global scale.
Known for fusing business with pop culture, Rana has been steadily positioning Loca Loka as a bold lifestyle brand. The F1 party was a celebration of this vision where Indian enterprise met global swagger in the heart of Miami.
From catching up backstage with 50 Cent to toasting with Flo Rida and laughing with Cuba Gooding Jr., Rana Daggubati’s Miami moment was a vivid reflection of his growing presence in the global lifestyle space.
While F1 was all about speed, for Rana and Loca Loka, it was about style, celebration, and cultural crossover, a spirited moment for Indian entrepreneurship on the world stage.

About THE Park Hotels:
THE Park Hotels – Navi Mumbai are pioneers in luxury boutique hospitality, known for their contemporary design, curated experiences, and pulse-driven energy across India’s top destinations.
Wynnd Hotels, one of NCR’s emerging hospitality names, proudly unveils The Dark Room—a striking new cafe-club concept that reintroduces the pulse of authentic nightlife to Noida. Located on the 5th floor of Galaxy Blue Sapphire Mall, Greater Noida West, The Dark Room is more than just a venue—it’s a vibe.
Designed for night owls, music lovers, and adventurers, The Dark Room channels the raw energy and allure of classic underground clubs. With bold black-and-red interiors and owl motifs across its walls, the space exudes an atmosphere that is both mysterious and magnetic. It’s crafted to evoke the nostalgia of a time when stepping into a club meant stepping into another world.
“The Dark Room is our response to what nightlife has lacked,” says Gaurav Sapra, Founder of The Dark Room by Wynnd Hotels. “At one point, entering a club was like entering another universe—where the lights, the music, and the people all combined to make you feel alive. That’s the vibe we’ve brought back here. It’s a place for those seeking more than a drink—they’re looking for an experience that lingers.”
The venue is open until 2:00 a.m., making it a perfect late-night haven for those looking to unwind, groove to live music, or dance through the night. At a time when much of the city’s nightlife has shifted toward quieter cafe culture, The Dark Room reclaims the essence of high-energy clubbing.
Beyond its music and ambiance, The Dark Room is also a premium dining destination. Guests can indulge in a diverse multi-cuisine menu, offering international flavours, gourmet bar food, and comfort dishes—carefully curated to pair with the club’s exotic beverage selection. The full-service bar features super-premium spirits, seasonal blends, and creative signature cocktails and mocktails.
Whether you're there for the beats, the bites, or the buzz, The Dark Room promises a return to nightlife that’s vibrant, unapologetic, and unforgettable.
