While an extension of the master lease has been granted and runs until 31 December 2027, a lot of tenants have already made plans to move and cancel contracts.

The Macallan has just launched a new travel retail exclusive, and we’ve fallen in love with it. The Macallan Carta Nautiva 20 Years Old is the brand’s latest expression of travel and time, shaped by two continents and the ocean that connects them. First matured in sherry seasoned oak casks from Spain then moved into bourbon casks from America, the flavour profile starts with a vibrant orange note before developing into creamy vanilla with tropical hints of pineapple and mango.
If this sounds like something that deserves a spot in your collection (and if you’re lucky enough to be travelling), visit the Macallan Carta Nautica pop-up where you can personalise your bottle with a Changi-exclusive blue Merlion cap to commemorate the world-first launch.
