Welcome to Whisky Festival Season 2022! The Scotch Malt Whisky Society was formed to celebrate the joy in sharing exceptional whisky – and there’s nothing like the festival month of May to demonstrate that our founding principle is not only alive and kicking – it’s bigger and more exciting than ever. A lucky few from our global membership will be heading to the different whisky regions in May to take part in tastings, dinners and parties, celebrating the contribution each of these areas has made to the wider world of whisky. We wanted to make sure that as many of our members as possible – whether they are physically present at the festivals or not – could get to share the experience in their glasses, wherever you might be around the globe. With that in mind, our Spirits Master Eaun Campbell created an exclusive collection of ‘Rare Release’ festival bottlings - all small batch single malts -that showcase the very essence of their region. Of note, these are presented in the Society’s international bottle (700ml size) imported in the US for the first time ever.
