SUMMARY:An Evening with Glenfarclas - Sydney
DESCRIPTION:We are absolutely delighted to present a Society Distillery Feature night\, focussing on Glenfarclas Distillery where the Society’s roots began with Cask No. 1.1.  Join us for a fun and memorable evening with whisky legend and Society friend\, Ian McWilliam\, Glenfarclas’ Marketing Executive and Keeper of the Quaich. With over two decades of experience at the distillery\, Ian has overseen each part of the production process at Glenfarclas\, having started in the warehouse\, then worked up through mashing\, brewing\, to distilling\, and also as assistant distillery manager before switching to global sales. \nIan will present a wonderful account and virtual tour of the distillery – one of the very last in Scotland to still be privately owned by a family – and will showcase a range of Glenfarclas expressions. We’ll then dovetail these with a number of very special Society bottlings of Glenfarclas\, including a unique SMWS release being flown in especially for this event and which will be a July Outturn pre-release just for the benefit of SMWS members and their guests. A delicious light supper is included. 6.30pm for a 7.00pm start. \nTickets are limited and on a first-come first-served basis – we hope to see you there! \nAndrew Derbidge\nSMWS Cellarmaster\, NSW Manager\, and Glenfarclas tragic.

SUMMARY:Vaults 1682
DESCRIPTION:Rewind 330 odd years. The year is 1682. The location? The Vaults in Leith\, Edinburgh\, Scotland.\nIt’s an important turning point for The Vaults\, a point in history in fact\, when The Vaults were established as a prominent wine cellar. It’s a site that exists even as far back as the 13th century! Fast forward to 1983 and a man named Pip Hills started The Scotch Malt Whisky Society in these very vaults. Then look to 2002 when John Rourke and Andre Tammes started the Australian chapter of the SMWS out of their love of single cask whisky. Come 2019\, we’re now taking a moment to celebrate that history with one of the most special experiences we’ve ever hosted. \nTake a trip back in time with the Society in what is our oldest and rarest whisky experience in Australia ever. Our National Ambassador has raided some of the rarest ‘paper label’ casks from the Society’s history\, deep within the dusty cabinets of our founding director’s stash\, and we relish the opportunity to create this one-off evening in Sydney. \nOn the night:\n\nWe’ll have our own private dining room at the award-winning Bentley Restaurant in Sydney\nWe’ll be tasting\, enjoying and vigorously discussing 10 x drams from the Society’s ‘paper label’ vintage era\nWe’ll enjoy a full 4-course dinner in between sets of drams at the remarkable Bentley Restaurant\nEveryone attending will leave with their own commemorative historical menu from the night\nThere will be a full presentation from the SMWS team\n\n\n

SUMMARY:The Gathering: Canberra
DESCRIPTION:What is the Gathering?\nIt’s a global Society evening being hosted in as many cities and towns around the world as possible with the idea harking back to the Scottish meaning of the word ‘Gathering’: a bringing together of people who shared common ancestry\, lands\, and a leader.

We have some special casks just landed for the Gathering events\, one of which is strictly a by-the-dram only serve. This particular cask has been shared with all SMWS branches worldwide for a truly global club gathering all enjoying the same amazing celebratory dram just for this occasion. And it’s from Distillery 33! \nThe Gathering Canberra is being held at our Partner Bar\, Hippo Co\, for a special night of cheese\, whisky\, chat\, and learn a few things along the way for this fun night of malts and magic. Come gather with us and share a few drams of some special casks. One night only for Canberra: 26th September\, 6pm for a 6:30pm start. \nDon’t miss this one…

SUMMARY:Old School: A Whisky Masterclass - Canberra
DESCRIPTION:Old School: A whisky masterclass with Andrew Derbidge\, the Society’s Cellarmaster\nIn the last few years\, the Society has strived to present new and innovative whisky events. In fact\, at the risk of blowing our own trumpet\, the Society has led the way in Australia with how whisky tastings are presented. The category never stands still\, and we’ve explored and curated all manner of whisky tasting events in recent years that have involved expo-style tastings\, food pairings\, beer pairings\, dessert pairings\, coffee pairings\, music pairings\, restaurants\, pubs\, breweries\, distilleries\, and even cruises on the water! \nBut what about a good ol’ fashioned tasting event? What if we did things……old school ?\nReturning to Canberra for the first time in six years\, the Society’s Cellarmaster\, Andrew Derbidge\, will present the ultimate old school whisky masterclass in his inimitable style: A presentation of some delicious\, old school whiskies; tales & stories from Scotland; some fun history and education about whisky and the distilleries being explored on the night; and a detailed culinary and visual tour of each whisky as we carefully analyse and assess the spirit. If you’ve ever wanted to improve your tasting skills and general knowledge about whisky and its appreciation\, this is an event you’ll get plenty out of. And did we mention delicious\, cask-strength\, single malt\, single cask whiskies? \nIf you’re a long-term whisky drinker and you remember how tastings were presented 15 years ago\, or if you’re newer to whisky and want to experience a masterclass done right\, Old School will be right up your alley: A selection of old school whiskies\, presented by an old school host\, and delivered old school style. \nAll whiskies\, supper\, and entertainment included in the ticket. Wednesday 20th November 2019 at the iconic National Press Club of Australia\, 16 National Circuit\, Barton. Members\, partners and guests of members welcome at member rates. Non-members also welcome – the more the merrier! \n6pm welcome dram for a 6.30pm start.
