2005
One Exquisite Passion
Joyce and Khoon Hui’s venture started in 2005 as a humble retail kiosk in
Tanglin Mall called “The Whisky Store”. The market lacked a dedicated whisky
bar at the time and they pursued their passion, opening Singapore’s first
whisky bar a year later at Waterfront Plaza.
2006 - 2007
The Great Whisky Bar
They soon reaped notable accolades for their contributions to the whisky
culture in Singapore. The Whisky Store was awarded the ‘Great Whisky Bar of
the World’ title by the international Whisky Magazine in 2006. In 2007, the bar
was renamed Quaich Bar.
2010
Top 10 Best Unique Bars
In 2010, Quaich Bar was voted ‘Top 10 Best Unique Bars’ by regional gastronomic publication, Epicure. It is also a stop-over for master distillers worldwide who regularly conduct whisky tastings and masterclasses to
showcase their signature brands.

After nine years of spreading the word of good whisky at the original outlet
nestled at the corner of Waterfront Plaza next to Grand Copthorne Waterfront
Hotel, a second outlet was opened at South Beach Avenue, next to JW Marriott
Hotel, in 2016.
