For Singapore’s luxury whisky collectors who attended that spring soirée, the evening offered something more valuable than the complimentary The Balvenie Doublewood 12-Year-Old bottle they took home. Instead, it was a stark reminder that true luxury lies not in acquisition but in experience.
As The Balvenie’s A Collection of Curious Casks continue its limited journey through Singapore’s most discerning circles, collectors can locate bottles on both Ishopchangi and Paneco. Those looking to secure The Balvenie New Spanish Oak Cask 17-Year-Old, look no further than exclusive retailer The Distillers Library, which offers private clients access to ultra-rare whiskies from the Grant family archive.
In today’s often transactional era, rife with calculated collaborations and focus-grouped flavour profiles, there is something refreshingly anarchistic about bearing witness to Scotland’s most meticulous whisky-makers celebrate their happy accidents, and better still, alongside French culinary excellence in Singapore at Restaurant Jag. Rewriting the rules on what’s possible when curiosity meets craft, The Balvenie presents the weird and wonderful outliers that the world would not usually encounter.
