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? Are terroir and regional descriptions appropriate or even relevant? Blends vs malts – a low budget B grade horror movie from the 1950’s or a new diet craze? 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:Old School: A Whisky Masterclass - Sydney
DESCRIPTION:Old School: A whisky masterclass with Andrew Derbidge\nIn the last few years we’ve 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 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 ? \nJoin the Society’s Cellarmaster and veteran\, Andrew Derbidge\, who’ll 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.

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

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: Adelaide
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. 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! \nJoin Jenny Forrest\, your SA Manager\, where she’ll be experimenting with different water sources\, whisky colouring\, flavour experimentation and perception training for an entertaining evening of water\, colour\, whisky and magic. Welcome dram\, gathering special casks\, and more. \nFriday 27th September\, 6pm for a 6:30pm start. Light supper included. \nDon’t miss this one…
