iShopChangi Has Up To 53% Off Booze, Stock Up Whether You’re Flying Or Not

iShopChangi Has Up To 53% Off Weekly Curated Deals On Booze That’ll Make You Say “Kanpai”

We all know that feeling you get after returning from an overseas vacation. As we return to the daily grind, one of the immediate things to check off from our to-do list is getting rid of post-travel blues.

Now’s a good time to admire the mementoes bought during our travels. And more often than not, we’d have a tipple to remind us of better times ahead.

iShopChangi is launching their Drink Around The World Campaign. From 6 May to 5 Jun, shoppers can enjoy 2,500 authentic liquor deals and bundles at up to 53% off. And they won’t even need a boarding pass.

Each week will feature different kinds of alcohol on sale:

  • Week 1 — Spirits
  • Week 2 — Whisky
  • Week 3 — Wine
  • Week 4 — Sake

Here’s a quick rundown of some of the best promos to enjoy, whether you’re flying or not.

Indulge in spirits such as Four Pillars & Choya

Wine connoisseurs travelling from Japan or the Mediterranean often reminisce about the exotic deliciousness of their native spirits.

If you’re still pining for the Land of the Rising Sun, indulge in a bottle of Choya Yuzu, which consists of yuzu citrus grown on Shikoku island.

Take a sip, and you’ll be drawn by the natural bitterness of yuzu. Pair it with Singapore favourites like chicken rice to combine the best of both worlds.

Australia and the Mediterranean may be far away, but you can relive the authentic flavours of a martini or gin and tonic with the right alcohol selection.

Four Pillars Olive Leaf Gin – made of rosemary, bayleaf, and macadamia nuts – is a savoury gin that you can enjoy while browsing pictures of your recent travels or dream destinations.

Drink whisky to your heart’s content

Instead of just talking about the fascinating drinks you had overseas to your envious BFFs, serve them a bottle so they can try it too.

It can be said that some whiskies offer a divine drinking experience. With Kamiki Intense, that’s literally the case as the production of this premium Japanese blend is protected and blessed by Omiwa Temple priests from Nara. Those who love bolder tastes would enjoy its smooth and complex flavour.

Another eye-catching selection is The GlenDronach Original 12 Years. Made in Spain, this deep amber-red gold concoction will delight your taste buds with its rich oak and sherry sweetness.

Other great whiskey brands to consider are Benriach, which boasts fruity and floral flavours, and Glenlivet, which is known for its distinct smoothness. There’s also Woodford Reserve and Royal Salute, which has its own special Singapore Edition.

Now that there’s no more group size limit, you can easily host fancy dinners and get-togethers at home for as many people as you want — after all, when it comes to drinking, the more, the merrier.

Diverse selections that will have you on ‘cloud wine’

Wine is the ideal companion whether you’re slowly adjusting to your routine back home or pining for your next vacation.

If you want to enjoy a glass with seafood, go for the Penfolds Bin 311 Chardonnay. With lemon and lime aromas, this fruity wine will satisfy even the pickiest eaters.

Reward yourself with a glass of Orin Swift’s Blank Stare Sauvignon Blanc on your first day back to work. Or make yourself feel better about your friend’s vacation pics giving you major FOMO.

You’ll get to indulge in an extravagant mix of kiwi, lime, lemongrass, and lavender.

Since you’re already stocking up your wine pantry, don’t forget to get a few more bottles for your loved ones while the deal’s still on.

Some other must-have wine brands that iShopChangi offers are Bottega, Bordeaux Chateau, and Wolf Blass.

Experience Japan with sake such as Saito and Dassai

When nursing post-travel blues, there’s no need to visit a Japanese bar or restaurant to feel like you’re exploring Tokyo’s nightlife once again. Instead, you can enjoy sake and say “kanpai” alongside friends and family back home.

Create fond memories with a bottle of Dassai Junmai Daiginjo 39. Smooth and striking on the palate, you’ll revel in the taste of Japanese pears, sweet scent of cotton candy, and hints of banana.

Kyoto’s premium aged sake, Saito, is also available close to home.

Great deals whether you’re travelling or not

Now that travel restrictions are easing, it’s a great time to book a flight and make your dream travel plans a reality. While picking up a bottle – or two – at the airport, of course.

However, even if you’re unable to make that trip, you can still easily access the best wines and spirits from faraway places. Think of it as a way to prep your tastebuds for when you finally get to jet off overseas again.

Here’s wishing those lucky ones travelling a safe trip, and to those who have yet to make holiday plans, may they get their turn soon.
