It’s all things whisky at The Wall Singapore but if you think this classy whisky bar is exclusive to gentlemen sitting in plush club chairs with cigars in their hands, then you can’t be more wrong. At the heart of The Wall’s mission is to demystify and democratize the art of appreciating the age-old ‘eaux de vie’, or water of life. With a whisky tasting chart indicating the characteristics of whiskies - from delicate to smoky, light to rich - and the always-helpful bar manager to guide drinkers in selecting their favourite flavour profile, both novices and connoisseurs will find themselves at just the right place.

Megastar whiskies here include the Yamazaki 50 Years, with only 150 bottles available worldwide, the Black Bowmore 29 Years, and the Macallan 1948 Select Reserve, with only 366 bottles available worldwide as well. The Wall also plans exclusive fortnightly ‘bottle intros’, where exclusive whiskies are opened and enjoyed. For something a little different, the eclectic range of bespoke and classic cocktails which demonstrates the versatility of whisky will leave you pleasantly surprised. Who can say no to this enticing offer?

Housed in a beautifully-preserved two-storey conservation shophouse dating back to the early 1900s, the interior is similarly stunning, with the weathered textures of the bare brick walls giving the bar its cosy atmosphere and rustic elegance. The upper floor takes on a lounge-like vibe, with leather club chairs arranged for intimate conversation. For those who prefer a little privacy, a classy VIP Lounger is available as well. (Jan 2019)

“The awe-inspiring whisky selection is what sets the tone for the entire joint. Given that The Wall Singapore is established by hardcore whisky aficionados, you’re going to see bottles you’ve only seen online in person, like some of the rarest bottlings from the now defunct Karuizawa distillery, or every single expression ever made by Glenfarcas.” -Lifestyle Asia

“It’s a refreshing change from the usual haunts that tend to be modelled after a gentleman’s club. Go through the doors of The Wall Singapore and you’ll see a brightly-lit space where counter seats offer plenty of chances to interact with the bar manager and really get to know that dram you’re having. And for those not prepared to dive head-first into whiskies, the bar offers a delectable menu of charcoal-grilled meat skewers to start with.” -The Peak
