WELCOME THE WHISKY SEASON WITH MEMBERSHIP TO THE WORLD’S LEADING WHISKY CLUB 

The gift of membership to The Scotch Malt Whisky Society offers your loved ones the chance to discover new flavours and experiences with fellow whisky-lovers across the globe 

The Scotch Malt Whisky Society (SMWS) opens up a whole new world of adventures for the whisky-lover in your life.

Every Society single malt whisky is hand-picked for its exceptional quality and intriguing character.

But being part of its ever-growing community of over 27,000 whisky fans goes beyond the Society’s outstanding single-cask spirits. Membership provides exclusive access to Members’ Rooms in Edinburgh, London and Glasgow as well as a calendar of UK-wide virtual tasting events.
