Jack Daniel’s Tennessee Whiskey
Retail Price: S$55
Jack Daniel’s is one of the best-known whiskeys in the world. It is mellowed drop by drop through 10-feet of sugar maple charcoal, and then matured in handcrafted barrels. Its taste is of a balanced caramel, vanilla and toasted oak, and is medium bodied with a creamy/clean finish. Commonly mixed with cola, this popular spirit is also an enjoyable drink to wind down after a day of CNY visiting when taken neat with ice.

Johnnie Walker Black Label
Retail Price: S$51
Johnnie Walker Black Label is masterful blend of single malt and grain whiskies from across Scotland. Aged for at least 12 years, it features a bold scent of fruits with a touch of sweet vanilla. The taste is of creamy toffee, sweet fruit and spice, with a warming smoky finish. The whiskey is a timeless classic with depth and balance of flavour, and is often taken neat with ice; or switch it up into a whiskey sour with some lemon juice and dashes of aromatic bitters. Pro-tip: Add a splash of Johnnie Walker’s when roasting meats for your festive feast to add a unique smoky undertone.

Hennessy VSOP
Recommended Retail Price: S$95
The VSOP from Hennessy is the epitome of balance and class and is a blend of 60 different eaux-de-vie aged up to 15 years. This “Very Special Old Pale” cognac is perfectly proportioned to be enjoyed on its own. Yet, it is versatile to be enjoyed as a good old-fashioned cocktail with bitters, a splash of water and syrup. The perfect accompaniment to traditional Chinese banquet dinners as it balances the heaviness of all 8 courses and is a fitting beverage across generations.
