MAVERICK TASTING
As The Scotch Malt Whisky Society continues its 40th anniversary celebrations as a maverick whisky club, we’re on a mission to uncover alternative ways to bring our drams to life.
READ FEATUREFor this year’s Gathering we’re going global, as we attempt to achieve an official Guinness World Record by bringing members together for the largest ever online tasting event. Here’s everything you need to know to be part of whisky-drinking history!
