SUMMARY:Whisky Myths - Adelaide
DESCRIPTION:Have you ever wondered about the mythology of whisky myths? How do celestial beings get their share of whisky? Is this only a myth?

Does it matter? \nWe give you a chance to share a few myths or even myth-takes while enjoying some fabulous Society single cask drams at the next tasting at our SMWS Partner Bar\, the Rob Roy. This promises to be a fun evening exploring whisky myths and magic. Will we create some of own myths? Or will it all be one big myth-take? Whether a whisky novice or nerd\, book now for yourself\, partner\, friends and work colleagues for an experience to remember. \n6.00pm for 6.30pm. Delicious light supper included. \nHope to see you there! \nJenny Forrest\, SA Manager\nforrest@smws.com.au

SUMMARY:A Saturday Sundowner: Challenge the Panel - Brisbane
DESCRIPTION:The Scotch Malt Whisky Society is bringing a twist on that great Queensland tradition of enjoying a few Saturday sundowners. The Society sources casks\, singular and rare\, from distilleries all around the world. These whiskies are carefully selected by our expert panel who name and provide tasting notes unique for each cask. Think of Cask 73.104 “Happy Hobnobbing Moments” or Cask 123.26 “Blossom Falling Onto Sponge Cake”. Fabulous stuff\, but\, sometimes… maybe we could do better … or differently with an Aussie twist. Here’s your chance. It’s time to challenge the panel! \nSo how does it work and what’s on offer? We’ll be presenting and showcasing five of our latest whiskies – some off the latest Outturn\, and some that have never before been seen or released in Australia. As the whiskies are presented\, each table forms a team. Each team gets to have their say on what the cask should be called and what the tasting notes should really be. Bring your nose\, bring your palate and be prepared to be creative. We’ll bring the inspirational drams. Each whisky is a new round\, the best names and tasting notes will score the highest points. At the end of the tasting\, the winning table (with the highest aggregate score) takes home the prizes and the glory. \nIt’s surprisingly easy\, it’s fun\, it’s informal\, and – best of all – you’ll enjoy some incredible whiskies along the way. And\, for those new to the Society or new to the world of whisky\, we’ll cover off a few of the basics – so come along and feel free to bring a friend or two. \nThere will be a light supper and Newstead beers and ales to cleanse the palate. All welcome!

SUMMARY:Sublime Sherried Malt Soirée - Canberra
DESCRIPTION:Join us for an incredible tasting of Society cask strength drams versus a commercial classic\, all with an exploration of differing sherry styles that have lent their influence to the flavour profile of the spirit. \nWhisky = water plus barley plus yeast\, with distillers’ skill and careful maturation in wood. The wood matters\, as does its previous uses. \nWith an explosion of wood conditioned ‘expressions’ in the retail market\, it is worthwhile recalling the traditional whisky styles and the ‘classics’ of flavour\, many of which are based on maturation in sherry casks. Sherry is often seen as the ‘forgotten apertif’\, not exactly fashionable\, yet delightful in its own right. \nCome along and explore with us on this flavour adventure. We will have light nibbles\, friendly faces\, new chums\, those starting their whisky journey and aficionados too\, all at the stunning Deck at Regatta Point. Bring friends along for a flavour discovery and enjoy Canberra’s wonderful autumn water views. Plus I have been test driving some delicious sherries for inclusion in the evening. Plenty of room and hospitality with fun and smiles guaranteed. \nLook forward to seeing you there for an unforgettable evening. \nDrew McKinnie\, ACT Manager\nmckinnie@smws.com.au
