Without a doubt, one of the world's precious single malt Scotch whisky is rolling out a most unique event in Singapore yet with Toast The Macallan, a ticket event set to take place at Marina Bay Sands over the weekend from 17 to 18 January.
The Macallan Brand Ambassador from Scotland, Kieron Elliott and local celebrity hosts Allan Wu and Randall Tan will grace the occasion, which is set to immerse guests in an experiential and sensory journey into the world of whisky, and will reveal the distinct characters, which makes The Macallan the world's most precious whisky.
The Macallan, founded in 1824, has seen an increased interest in single malt scotch whisky across Asia, with Singapore at the forefront of this trend.
With this in mind, Toast The Macallan is aimed at individuals who are adventurous and keen to learn more about the esteemed single malt whisky.
During each 90-minute session, guests will be treated to a range of tasting sessions, digital presentations and a comprehensive insight into the distillation process of The Macallan. A guided tour at Toast The Macallan is also part of the session and will show visitors the importance of wood in the distillation process and how countries such as Scotland, Spain, New York and Singapore have influenced The Macallan over the years.
Geoff Kirk, Managing Director of Edrington, Southeast Asia, said, "Having enjoyed success in key global markets, we decided to bring the Toast the Macallan to Singapore with an aim to spark a connection with The Macallan among the uninitiated but aspirational whisky drinkers in the region."
"With its fun, interactive elements, we believe this unprecedented event will tell the personal story of The Macallan, drawing on its long history and rich traditions."
We look forward to sharing a few drams of The Macallan with our guests and elaborate on what makes it a cut above the rest."
