Whisky Live Singapore is raising the bar for its 13th year, introducing a VIP-only format that promises an intimate, immersive experience at the heart of Singapore’s whisky scene. Set in the historic Mandala Club on 23 and 24 November, this event focuses on bringing enthusiasts and industry insiders a blend of discovery and exclusive access to rare and unique bottles.
Under the guidance of La Maison du Whisky (LMDW), this edition returns to the event’s roots with a strong emphasis on education and exclusive tastings. Attendees will explore the "Foundations" Catalogue, featuring the debut of limited-edition bottles such as the Macallan 1991 and Longmorn 1994, along with LMDW’s own Artist #14 single casks. Only 300 VIP guests per day will enjoy this refined curation, offering a quieter, more focused approach to whisky appreciation.
Guests can indulge in the VIP Central Bar, a centrepiece of this edition, where carefully curated whiskies from LMDW’s catalogues await. In a special collaboration, Teeling Whiskey will also launch a rare, Manhattan Bar-inspired single malt finished in Negroni casks.
Beyond whisky, rum aficionados will find rare treasures too. Velier’s Magnum Series #2 rums make their Southeast Asia debut, featuring Alex Webb’s evocative photography on labels and unique bottlings from Caribbean distilleries. The revered Vieux Sajous Clairin aged in Mount Gay and Jack Daniel's barrels will also feature prominently, bridging cultures and craftsmanship.
Access to Whisky Live Singapore 2024 starts from 12pm or 2pm, depending on ticket types, starting from S$188+ for a VIP ticket, to S$220+ for a VIP Early Access ticket. An extremely limited number of VIP 2-Day Early Access tickets are also available from S$388+, with access to the show from 12pm across both Saturday and Sunday.
Each ticket includes access to tasting sessions, curated food pairings, and free masterclasses. Guests also enjoy discounts on retail and a complimentary cocktail at nearby “Cocktail Street” bars, underscoring Whisky Live’s integration with Singapore’s vibrant spirits community.
