Is this the ultimate Scotch whisky Christmas gift idea?

By LLM Reporters   |  

This Christmas, treat adventurous spirits enthusiasts and whisky aficionados alike to a gift that keeps on giving – membership to The Scotch Malt Whisky Society (SMWS).

SMWS is an international whisky club that bottles the world’s widest selection of single cask, single malt whisky for its members.

Each month, the SMWS releases around 15 whiskies to its members, with each one coming under one of its 12 unique flavour profiles such as ‘Juicy, oak and vanilla’, ‘Old and dignified’ and ‘Heavily peated’.

Society membership is the first step on an ever-changing sensory adventure that takes members on a mouth-watering journey of whisky discovery.

Membership also provides a perfect present to place under the Christmas tree in the form of a beautifully presented membership gift box, which includes:

– Three 10cl sample bottles of Society single cask whiskies
– Member’s handbook
– Society badge
– £10 voucher to spend on first SMWS bottle purchase

A membership of The Scotch Malt Whisky Society costs from £122 and grants members exclusive access to the Society’s monthly releases of single cask, single malt whisky, as well as special grain whiskies, bourbons and even rums. It’s an ever-changing selection, which will satisfy all, from the curious newcomer to the experienced connoisseur.

In addition to receiving award-winning members’ magazine, ‘Unfiltered’, members can also attend special tasting events and gain access to The Scotch Malt Whisky Society’s beautiful private Members’ Rooms in Edinburgh and London. Members can sign up to three guests into the Members’ Rooms.
