SUMMARY:The Gathering: Melbourne
DESCRIPTION:Due to overwhelming demand\, extra tickets just added! Please note change of venue.\nWhat 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. A gathering was more than just a family reunion\, it was also a celebration. It’s the perfect term to describe a coming together of those whose passion and commonality is whisky. We have some special casks just landed for the Gathering events\, one cask 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! \nOne night only at the historic Kelvin Club in Melbourne CBD. Included in the ticket are cheeses\, meats\, welcome dram\, Gathering casks and more. \nThursday 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.

DESCRIPTION:Event #2 as part of the Archie Rose x SMWS pop-up bar for 2020!\nHERESY HISTORY \nPart 2 of 3 events in the distillery at Archie Rose as part of our SMWS pop-up with this legendary Partner Bar: Heresy History. Back in 2017 the Scotch Malt Whisky Society caused waves in the membership base when we first released a blended malt\, called Exotic Cargo. A full-sherry maturation\, 10 year old\, blended malt bottled at 50%. This isn’t single cask whisky?! All outrage was quelled once it was tasted. Incredible. Since then\, we’ve released Peat Faerie\, Old Fashioned\, Beachcomber and others. To celebrate this history\, at the very location where we launched Exotic Cargo to begin\, we’ll be opening ALL the heresy history in this one-off event for members of the SMWS + guests. Take a trip back in time with Heresy History as part of our August ‘Flavour Invasion’ time travel Outturn! Tickets strictly limited to allow for social distancing. \nFriday 21 August 7pm start\, Archie Rose Distillery\, 85 Dunning Ave\, Rosebery NSW. Members\, guests\, partners welcome. Tickets $79 members / $99 non-members. Join us after for some drams at the bar for the SMWS takeover of Archie Rose for 3 x nights starting that night. \nTickets go on sale Wednesday 5 August at 10am.

SUMMARY:The Dot Ones
DESCRIPTION:THE DOT ONES\n\n\n \n\n\nThroughout the history of the world’s most unique whisky club\, the Scotch Malt Whisky Society\, we’ve been pushing the boundary of innovation\, of surprises\, of panel-approved casks of whisky. \n\n\n \n\n\nIn the last 4 years we’ve had a welcome flurry of ‘dot one’ casks representing the first ever release from that distillery for the Society\, and in many cases the first time that distillery has ever released an independent bottling. This is where the SMWS excels: pushing the envelope\, challenging the norm\, and creating incredible first moments in history. \n\n\n \n\n\nThankfully\, we’ve been tucking away a few rarities from the recent history of first releases\, and we’re opening them all on one night only with your national ambassador Matt Bailey.\n\n\n \n\n\nSingle cask\, cask strength\, panel-approved whiskies from Scotland\, Japan\, India\, America\, Taiwan & Sweden. Maximum 33 x guests\, the ISC room at the RAC awaits us on Friday 6 November\, 6:30pm for a 7pm start sharp. Tickets will be made available to members & guests/partners of members of the SMWS first and foremost\, then non-member tickets after one week.\n\n\n \n\n\nTickets for members go on sale this Friday 16 October along with our mid-month offer.
