Changi Airport Group has unveiled the collection of fine and rare spirits that will feature in the World of Wines & Spirits (WoWS) event, hosted in partnership with Lotte Duty Free.

Back for a second year, the event brings together over 100 releases from 56 brands, including The Macallan, Bowmore, Martell and Hennessy.

WoWS customers will be treated to a personalised shopping experience once they’ve registered interest in a product. 

Changi Airport concierge will facilitate any enquiries, take payment and either arrange collection or local delivery. 

Collectors can purchase from the showcase between now and February 2024. 

The WoWS catalogue includes an array of old and rare releases, including The Macallan 72 Years Old in Lalique – The Genesis Decanter. Limited to just 600 globally, the release offers notes of raisins, ginger, delicate peat smoke, and green apples. 

Also available is Bowmore John Galvin 1965, a Lotte exclusive that has been aged in No.1 Vaults, the oldest maturation warehouse in the world. From the iconic island of Islay, this single malt offers both deep fruit notes in a balanced smokehouse style. 

Martell 70 Years Old Grande Champagne is a one-of-a-kind limited edition drawn from some of the Cognac house’s rarest reserves. Just 70 decanters have been released, each crafted by French crystal maker, Baccarat.

Another highlight is Hennessy Paradis Bernardaux, made to celebrate The Year of the Dragon in 2024. It is the third in a Chinese Zodiac series, released in partnership with Maison Bernardaud.
