Then from January 2023, the airline will showcase a different destination each quarter in celebration of the unique wine regions across its global flight network.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When he is not selecting and tasting potential new wines or curating menu descriptions, Jackson could also be championing the best of British beers, promoting classic gins and, on a more sober note, rolling out innovative non-alcoholic alternatives.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>British Airways director of onboard experience Sajida Ismail commented: &#8220;We are really excited to have Tim at British Airways. His knowledge and expertise play an integral role in our efforts to continue delivering the premium experience that our customers look for when they fly with us and offer products our colleagues are proud to serve.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>British Airways&#8217; Master of Wine said: &#8220;I&#8217;m delighted to be the first person to take this position at British Airways. As an avid traveller, I have sampled wine from all corners of the globe, ranging from California to Chile, so I hope my love for travel and my knowledge of beverages will make a positive difference to the premium experience we offer our customers.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The airline will spotlight one destination at a time to celebrate where the wines come from and the global network that the airline flies to.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Cape Town in South Africa will be the airline&#8217;s first focus, with new wine offerings including Radford Dale&#8217;s Renaissance Chenin Blanc from old vines in Stellenbosch and Andrea and Chris Mullineux&#8217;s benchmark Swartland Syrah from South Africa&#8217;s Winery of the Year.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>SINGAPORE, 22 December 2022: It has to be among the world&#8217;s best jobs competing with a tropical island caretaker; welcome the Master of Wine hired by an airline.
