SUMMARY:Melbourne's New Flavour Profile Luncheon
DESCRIPTION:You’ve seen them online\, you might have tasted them at a Partner Bar\, but now it’s time to gather in person and enjoy all eight new Flavour Profiles over a classic lunch at the Kelvin Club this June!\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 Kelvin Club on Saturday\, June 20\, for a beautiful luncheon where you’ll have the opportunity to taste a Society dram from each of the new profiles\, and write your own notes! An opportunity to get up close and personal with each of the new profiles and really find your own\, all in the stately surrounds of the Kelvin Club with fellow Society members. \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? Saturday the 20th of June 2026\, 1:00pm arrival for a 1:30pm start.\nWhere? Kelvin Club; 14-30 Melbourne Pl\, Melbourne VIC 3000.\n  \nMembers are welcome to bring guests at member prices. Non-members are also welcome to attend and learn more about the Society.

Five unique Society single-cask drams (three whiskies\, an Armagnac\, and a Cognac) paired with five handmade chocolate “snack bars” from Krsna himself; this is it\, the ultimate chocolate and whisky pairing — the perfect pairings. Each ticket includes the five drams and five chocolate snack bars\, as well as canapés on arrival with a welcome dram — all enjoyed in the beautiful surrounds of the Hawthorn Arts Centre. \n  \nWhen? Saturday the 19th of August\, 2:00pm start.\nWhere? Hawthorn Arts Centre\, 360 Burwood Rd\, Hawthorn\, VIC\, 3122.\n  \nMembers are welcome to bring guests at member pricing\, non-members are also welcome to attend. \n  \nWe have members join The Society explicitly for the unparalleled chocolate and whisky pairing collaboration we do with Krsna of BASIK each year — this is an experience you do not want to miss! \n  \nPlease note that whilst dietary requirements will be taken into account for the lunch meal\, no substitutes can be made for the chocolate pairings.
