The evening was filled with surprises—from an exclusive six-hands dinner to a stunning reveal that left guests exhilarated
For whisky connoiseurs, Mortlach is one of those special brands that holds special reverence. Known affectionately as the “Beast of Dufftown”, the brand has its roots in Scotland circa 1823, and was the first legal distillery in Dufftown. Whiskies from Mortlach’s distillery are prized as they go through a precise distillation process that has been unchanged for 120 years—it is distilled precisely 2.81 times, with the spirit passing through six stills with distinctively different silhouettes before being aged in casks.

With such an impressive creation process, it’s little wonder that the visionary brand would choose to celebrate the launch of its latest expression, the 30-year-old Midnight Malt, with an audacious event.
Born out of a cheeky photography exhibition starring three intrepid chefs, namely Coriander Leaf’s Iskander Latiff, Mandala Club’s Reuben Davis and Chef’s Table’s Stephan Zoisl, and malt experts from Diageo, the photos—capturing the (mis)adventures that take place after dark on revelatory nights—inspired the Mortlach Supper Club After Dark. The brand—in partnership with Tatler Singapore—then brought the three headlining chefs together for an exclusive six-hands dinner to celebrate the spirit of the bold whisky.
Held at the historic Singapore Polo Club, Coriander Leaf’s Mountbatten Room was transformed into a floral-filled dreamscape, where a dazzling evening awaited our guests. Diageo’s luxury director David Dang opened the evening, welcoming guests and introducing Mortlach’s history, before inviting Ewan Gunn, Diageo’s senior global Scotch whisky ambassador to further expound on the unique processes that go into making Mortlach’s coveted spirits.
