WOWS Catalogue: Discover the Pinnacle of Global Wine and Spirit Excellence
This year's WOWS showcase features an unparalleled collection of rare and prestigious spirits, each embodying a legacy of craftsmanship and excellence.
Highland Park 54-Year-Old
Highland Park 54-Year-Old embodies a legacy of excellence and artisanal mastery, with its roots in Orkney, Scotland. This limited-edition single malt Scotch whisky honours the Highland Park Distillery’s 225-year history, and its decanter and presentation case draw inspiration from the ancient strata of the Cliffs of Yesnaby, reflecting the region’s 400-million-year geological history.
To develop the whisky’s character and colour further, Master Whisky Maker Gordon Motion tipped the original 1968 casks into first-fill sherry seasoned casks. Fourteen years of careful nurturing later, the result is this exquisite whisky with only 225 bottles to exist – one for every year of Highland Park’s 225-year production history.
Featuring a deep autumnal russet colour, this whisky is intensely sweet, rich and complex, with rich aroma of lychees, aromatic camphor, vintage oak, crushed cumin and coriander seeds, fragrant rose, sweet jasmine, honeyed kiwi fruit, pistachio biscotti, fenugreek, and delicate heathery peat smoke.
Only one bottle available exclusively at WOWS for S$73,000.
The Macallan Horizon
A collaboration between The Macallan and Bentley Motors, The Macallan Horizon unites the expertise of two world-leading brands—in the worlds of exceptional single malt whisky and extraordinary automotive design—in pursuit of the uncompromised excellence for which they are renowned. Bringing together both traditional craftsmanship and cutting-edge precision engineering technology, The Macallan Horizon pushes the art of the possible—where purpose meets innovation, craftsmanship, and beauty.
Comprised of six materials integral to The Macallan and Bentley Motors, The Macallan Horizon is a testament to the unparalleled craftsmanship and shared dedication to excellence that defines the collaboration. The Macallan Horizon's horizontal vessel defies traditional vertical whisky bottle aesthetics and is inspired by the horizontal trajectory of the automotive world, paying homage to the rich heritage of both The Macallan and Bentley Motors while embracing a forward-looking vision for the future.
With a dark mahogany colour, The Macallan Horizon offers a rich aroma of polished oak, plums, dark cherries, and fresh leather, complemented by dried fruits, cinnamon, and nutmeg. Its palate is indulgent, featuring dark treacle, cinder toffee, crystallised ginger, and charred pineapple, balanced with sweet vanilla, fudge, and dark chocolate-coated Brazil nuts. The finish is long and complex, with a warm oak spice.
Only one bottle available exclusively at WOWS for S$66,800.
Bowmore Vaults 1971 51-Year-Old
Bowmore Vaults 1971 51-Year-Old is a limited-edition single malt whisky from Islay, Scotland, initially aged in sherry-seasoned European Oak casks before being finished in an Oloroso Sherry butt for an additional three years. This meticulous process imparts a profound depth of character, emblematic of Bowmore's storied tradition.
The whisky, with its deep mahogany hue, reflects a rich legacy from the 1970s, a period marked by significant enhancements under Stanley P Morrison's ownership. Morrison, a renowned Glasgow whisky broker, oversaw the installation of new equipment that elevated Bowmore’s reputation. The 1971 Vaults expression captures the essence of this era, blending the aged union of spirit and oak into a truly multifaceted whisky.
Two bottles available exclusively at WOWS for S$62,000 each.
Hibiki 40-Year-Old
Hibiki 40-Year-Old is an expression of ageing that defies the traditional conventions of opulence, decadence, and intensity. With age comes a different kind of aliveness. A harmony born from mastery and precision.
The Founding Family of Japanese whisky presents an expression of age: a blossoming of experience. Full of delicacy and freshness, nimbleness and confidence.
This timeless blend offers layers of complex aromas of dried apricot with hints of lemon peel and clove, flavours of subtle yuzu and acacia honey, finishing with a soothing incense aroma spiced with cinnamon and Mizunara (Japanese Oak).
Limited bottles available at WOWS for S$60,000 each.
Mortlach x Starck L'Evolution Collection "Begin & Beyond"
The Mortlach x Starck L’Evolution Collection “Begin & Beyond” celebrates 200 years of Mortlach’s distilling excellence through a visionary collaboration with Philippe Starck as its inaugural Creative Director. This limited-edition set honours the legacy of pioneering distiller Alexander Cowie and showcases a unique journey of evolution. This rare and magnetic duo is unlike any that has come before it, revealing a timeless story of humanity through two distinct manifestations.
BEGIN is Mortlach’s luminous heart, representing the first drops of ‘new make’ spirit from the renowned 2.81 distillation—a rarity that only a few have had the privilege to taste. This barley spirit, with its robust and bold character, offers a glimpse into the spirit's inception, smooth with compelling layers of sweetness, umami notes of pepper and pear, and a meaty, spicy finish.
BEGIN is twinned with BEYOND, a Mortlach of velvet fortitude, a complex, rich, and meaty whisky awakened by a long maturation in casks from five transformative eras. BEYOND presents a powerful beast that has been tamed, offering a rich, complex, and emboldened Mortlach experience.
“Since its creation, the brand has been inventing and exploring new territories, crafting whiskies that are incredibly rich without gimmick or superfluous elements. This was a profound revelation for me, as Mortlach clearly already belonged to the future. The evolution story of Mortlach takes a leap forward into modernity, with the elegance of nature and the magic of science serving humanity.” — Philippe Starck, Mortlach Creative Director.
Two sets are available exclusively at WOWS for S$13,800 each.
Talisker 30-Year-Old
Located on the shores of the Isle of Skye in Scotland for nearly 200 years, Talisker is very much a product of its rugged, coastal home. A brand rooted in adventure, the whisky's founders, the MacAskill brothers, rowed from Eigg to Skye in 1830 to start the Talisker Distillery in Scotland and that sense of adventure lives on through everything the brand does today.
Limited to 2,610 bottles worldwide, the Talisker 30-Year-Old sports a sweet smoke profile with a pointed pepperiness.
A much-anticipated release features a gentle peppery kick with wisps of sea smoke. This latest release from the renowned distillery, made by the sea on the Isle of Skye, maintains the excellence and stellar reputation of the Talisker 30-Year-Old that whisky aficionados have come to anticipate.
Talisker 30-Year-Old captures three decades of maturation and celebrates the very peak of Skye, a taste evoking not just its rugged shores, but also the summit of the Cuillin mountains. The pointed pepperiness of this spirit embodies the majesty of the mountains and coastline of Skye, whilst sweet smoke captures the essence of untamed beauty as one gazes at the view from the summit.
Previous releases of the Talisker 30-Year-Old have achieved multiple accolades, with the recent 2022 bottling of Talisker 30-Year-Old earning Gold in the International Wine & Spirits Competition, Double Gold in the International Spirits Challenge, and Master in the Scotch Whisky Masters.
12 bottles are available exclusively at WOWS for S$2,200 each.
L’Or de Jean Martell 1715 Zodiac Edition - Assemblage du Serpent
The L’Or de Jean Martell 1715 Zodiac Edition - Assemblage du Serpent is a distinguished cognac celebrating the Year of the Snake in 2025. This exclusive release pays homage to the year's zodiac animal with a unique blend. To showcase the edition, Martell has collaborated with Baccarat – one of France’s most revered manufacturers of fine crystal – to create an exquisite decanter evoking a single, pure drop of cognac. The decanter is crowned by a striking representation of a snake’s head and the neck is covered in 19-carat gold. Inside a beautifully crafted red cabinet decorated inside and out with an interlaced snakeskin pattern and gold motifs, the decanter rests on a gold-tone pedestal.
Crafted by Martell Cellar Master Christophe Valtaud, this edition draws inspiration from the legend of Nüwa, enhancing L'Or de Jean Martell with old eaux-de-vie from various Years of the Snake. The result is a cognac that captures the snake's enigmatic and fascinating character, offering a refined experience with each sip. It is a remarkable and complex blend of more than 1,400 eaux-de-vie from the four finest terroirs in the Cognac region, each aged to its point of aromatic plenitude.
Out of a strictly limited worldwide release of 500 bottles featuring the auspicious number 88, only one bottle will be available for S$15,000 exclusively at WOWS.
