Singapore’s best cocktails now exclusively served at Flyer Lounge


(Singapore – 23 March 2011) Singapore’s best bartenders and sommeliers have made the
Flyer Lounge at Singapore Flyer their home, pampering guests with some cocktail indulgence.

Located at the iconic world’s largest Giant Observation Wheel, the Flyer Lounge is the only place in Singapore to serve up the Republic’s champion cocktails – which were previously not available to the public.

So why not savour award winning cocktails like A Lady’s Dream or a Milky Way to banish the Monday blues? Or how about a Highland Cigar guaranteed to send your mood through the clouds? These are just some of the nation’s best cocktails now available at Flyer Lounge.

What’s more, professionally managed by the Association of Bartenders & Sommeliers Singapore (ABSS), the Flyer lounge will also be the official venue for the yearly National Cocktail Competitions – a birthplace to herald talented bartenders and mixologists in Singapore.

President of ABSS Mr Michael Cheng says, “ABSS holds the exclusive rights to these award-winning recipes and we want these winning concoctions to be easily available to the public, so that they can taste for themselves the uniqueness of each cocktail that is not available anywhere else. Singapore Flyer is an ideal location as it is an iconic landmark of Singapore, complemented with its renowned picturesque waterfront view, providing one with relaxing scenery while enjoying a cocktail. As the Flyer Lounge now hosts the annual National Cocktail Competitions, ABSS aims to continue to discover hidden talents in the industry, who may just create the next iconic drink of Singapore, right at an iconic attraction.”

Indulge yourself with the exquisite, cozy and posh Flyer Lounge.

Located on Level 3 of the Singapore Flyer building, the lounge is the world’s largest Giant Observation Wheel’s latest offering. Hues of black and gold offer guests a warm, comfortable setting, as they savour their award-winning cocktails in plush sofas, against a display of limited edition spirits and liqueurs. Completing the night of indulgence is the panoramic Marina Bay waterfront as guests step out onto the alfresco balcony deck of the Flyer Lounge, offering guests a breathe of fresh air.

Said Mr Jeff Tan, Sales & Marketing Director of Singapore Flyer, “Following the successful launch of our Journey of Dreams Interactive Gallery last month, we at Singapore Flyer have continuously worked with our partners and stakeholders to introduce new and exciting offerings, so that there is always something appealing, and value-adds to guests who visit the Flyer. We are very excited to be working alongside the Association of Bartenders & Sommeliers Singapore on the new Flyer Lounge – the only place in Singapore to serve award-winning cocktails from the annual National Cocktail Competition. We are confident that their years of experience and expertise will give guests to the Flyer Lounge and all our beverage flights a one-of-a-kind experience, especially for those who wish to chill in style with their business associates, family and friends in a relaxing and comfortable environment. “

To extend your night of extravagance at Flyer Lounge, guests can enjoy 50% off their second drink. Guests who want to fill their hungry stomach can order from a wide selection of finger food such as spicy Buffalo wings with Blue Cheese dip and Nachos to share.

And to bring a moving experience at every turn to new heights, literally, guests can now experience the nation’s all-time classic – the Singapore Sling on board the new Singapore Sling flight.

Enjoy Singapore’s favorite cocktail on the iconic wheel

At S$69nett per individual, guests get to enjoy a 30-minute treat in a special-themed capsule while enjoying the national’s all-time classic cocktail, the Singapore Sling.

Possibly the most perfect version of the Singapore Sling – after years of tasting and experimenting by the association – watch how this cocktail stunner is carefully mixed and hand-shaken to perfection in the skies. While comfortably nestled in your sky bar capsule, the iconic drink complements the charming views of Singapore’s cityscape as you ascend to the top. Similar to how the drink is synonymous to being the nation’s cocktail; see how Singapore Flyer is an icon of Singapore as it offers you a bird’s eye view of a once kampong fishing village, transcending in time to a modern cosmopolitan city.

Complete your immersive experience on Journey of Dreams

And to enhance your Singapore Sling flight experience, get a better understanding and appreciation of the Singapore Story through the eyes of the Singapore Flyer at the new interactive gallery, Journey of Dreams. Opened this year as part of the wheel’s S$10-million dollar masterplan, the gallery uses an intimate storytelling format and interactive multimedia, showcasing Singapore’s successful transformation through time.
