SINGAPORE, May 7 — A Singapore Sling or two for the road? DFS’ new wines and spirits flagship boutique in Changi Airport Terminal 3 has its very own Raffles Hotel Long Bar in its premises.

The famous bar is one of a few exclusive offerings inside the 11,400 sq ft store, which opened earlier today. The two-storey boutique was designed by Masamichi Katayama, the renowned Japanese interior designer who was behind the interiors of the Uniqlo branch in Ginza, Tokyo, and the Hyundai Card Travel Library in Seoul.

There are also tasting bars and a private lounge on the first level for hosting workshops on bartending and guided tastings. The second level boasts individual boutiques for nine spirits brands — Absolut, Dom Perignon, Glenfiddich, Hendrick’s, Hennessy, Johnnie Walker, The Macallan, Martell and Penfolds. Travellers can expect visits from master blenders and distillers as well as product launches from these brands.

Over 1,400 wines, spirits and tobacco products from more than 400 brands are available at the store. DFS will further introduce exclusive products from DOM Benedictine, Jack Daniels and Johnnie Walker to celebrate Singapore’s golden jubilee year

“For over 30 years, travellers have shopped with DFS at Changi Airport because we are the destination for the best in wines, spirits and tobacco. Our new store reinforces our promise to our customers, and our vision,” says Brooke Supernaw, Senior Vice President, Global Merchandising — Spirits, Wine, and Tobacco. “Travellers will discover exclusive products and unique experiences that will elevate their journey.” — TODAY
