Pioneering as the maker of Singapore's very first batch of gin in 2018, Tanglin Gin Distillery operates out of colonial-era heritage quarters nestled in Dempsey Hill. The site combines a working craft distillery with the Tanglin Gin Jungle, an inviting hospitality space centred around a seven-metre gin bar set against a lush jungle garden. Visitors head here to pick up bottled spirits directly from the source, take part in distillery masterclasses, or sit down for cocktails and evening drinks. Crafting gins infused with local botanicals that echo the neighbourhood’s historic spice plantation roots, it is a distinctly hands-on stop for spirits enthusiasts. Across the immediate Dempsey area, it is one of two dedicated bottle shops and distillery outlets within a kilometre, offering an established, well-proven track record alongside its nearby counterpart Hidden Hills Distillery. You will find it tucked away at 26A Dempsey Road in Dempsey Hill. Our pick in Dempsey Hill for discovering locally distilled spirits in a relaxed heritage setting.
