SUMMARY:At the Chef's Table: Franz Scheurer x Lennox Hastie

SUMMARY:Adelaide's New Flavour Profile Dinner
DESCRIPTION:Adelaide — it’s time to gather in person and enjoy all eight new Flavour Profiles at Seven Stars Hotel this coming June with your new local Ambassador\, Nirmal Menon!\nFor almost a decade\, the Society’s 12 flavour profiles have influenced the way our members interact with our spirit. Now we see a shift from 12 to 8\, a simplification of flavour to further inform and assist how you interact with society spirit. A flavour evolution! \nJoin us at the familiar Seven Stars Hotel on Wednesday\, June 17\, for a two-course dinner alongside eight Society drams — one from each of the new profiles — where you’ll be able to also write your own tasting notes! An opportunity to get up close and personal with each of the new profiles and really find your own flavour. \nIn tandem\, we’ll also be exploring the newly-designed ‘Signature’ range of Society bottles. These will be replacing ‘Core’ bottlings with some minor\, yet crucial\, design changes as you’ll see. We’re really excited to be bringing these evolved flavours to you! \n \n\nWhen? Wednesday the 17th of June 2026\, 6:30pm arrival for a 7:00pm start.\nWhere? Seven Stars Hotel; 186/187 Angas St\, Adelaide SA 5000.\n  \nMembers are welcome to bring guests at member prices. Non-members are also welcome to attend and learn more about the Society. \n  \nThis will also be the first tasting hosted by the new South Australian Ambassador Nirmal Menon — come along and show your support for your fellow long-term Society member turned Ambassador!

SUMMARY:Hobart: The Spirit of Five Meets the Mediterranean
DESCRIPTION:Every year\, the five Scotch Whisky regions celebrate the spirit of their own flavours. The Society is uniquely positioned to be able to celebrate all five regions at once; but as Scotch Whisky evolves\, we at the SMWS have to ask: do the regions really matter? There’s only one way to find out!\nThis year in Hobart\, your Ambassador Tom Rofe has gone all out for the Festivals\, adding a luxurious and expertly-crafted Mediterranean twist; we’ve teamed up with Restaurant Maria on the Brooke St Pier to deliver a premium five-course meal paired with five of the 2026 SMWS Festival Creators Collection bottlings — one from each region\, with an additional five-region blend to welcome you to the evening. \nMake no mistake\, this is not your average SMWS tasting; a beautiful and luxuriously paired dinner where the liquid gold of the Scotch Whisky regions meet the delight of the Mediterranean’s culinary prowess. \n  \nWhen? Friday\, August 21; 5:50pm arrival for a 6pm start.\nWhere? Restaurant Maria; Brooke St Pier\, Hobart 7000\nWhat? 6x SMWS 2026 Festivals Creators Collection drams (five paired + a welcome dram) and a five-course mediterranean dinner.\n  \nMembers are welcome to purchase member-rate tickets for guests\, non-members are also welcome to attend.
