1855 The Bottle Shop
Accessible specialist retailer with islandwide boutiques, premium labels and wine dinner activity.
1855 The Bottle Shop is a specialist wine and spirits retailer with several Singapore outlets, including ION Orchard, Marina Bay Sands, Marina One, Paragon, Suntec City, i12 Katong and 6th Avenue. Its website carries wines, spirits, accessories, sale bottles, En Primeur, pre-orders and wine dinner listings. The brand positions itself around more than 1,000 premium labels and personalised recommendations, with a mix of classics, contemporary icons and exclusive retail labels. It is one of the more convenient choices for shoppers who want both an online store and physical boutiques in major retail locations.
1855 is a strong middle ground between specialist and convenient. The outlets are easy to reach, the website is well organised by type, country, region, grape and price, and there are enough premium bottles for seasoned drinkers. It works well for gifts, dinner bottles and mall browsing before a meal. The trade-off is that the boutique format can feel more polished than geeky, so rare-wine hunters may still prefer a cellar specialist. For most buyers, the accessibility is a major plus.
Its combination of multiple boutiques, premium range, clear online shopping and regular wine-related programming makes it one of Singapore's most dependable retail names.
