Are you searching for the perfect gift for a whisky enthusiast? Purchase of Society membership as a gift provides the lucky recipient one year’s access to the following benefits outlined below.
It’s the most wonderful time of year to sit back, relax and savour 12 exquisite whiskies from The Scotch Malt Whisky Society. Ease yourself towards Christmas with our stunning selection of hand-picked single casks and more.
Our new advent calendar is on sale now with other seasonal whisky specials ripe for picking.
Countdown to Christmas with our celebratory collection of cask treats from The Scotch Malt Whisky Society.
This year we’re celebrating the spirit of the season with gifts that are all about spending time together and sharing the magic of feel-good flavours.
Whether it’s craft beer or cocktails, this person knows their way around a bar and can make an Old Fashioned that is utterly perfect. Choose whiskies that offer spicy and rye-like notes or go for a Society Single Cask Spirit such as rum, cognac or gin, for a new spin on a familiar spirit. Our sister brand J.G. Thomson offers award-winning small-batch blended malt Scotch whisky and spirits.
If they love their whisky but are new to the Society then start them off with a whisky flight in our Members’ Rooms, or gift membership from £85.
If they are already a member, treat them to an early Christmas present with our advent calendar and let them explore our flavour profiles.
If you’re looking for something small but perfectly formed and whisky-themed our Society Intro Discovery Pack offers five 25ml hand-selected drams.
Instead of doing individual gifts, share good food and drink and great company. Book a meal or private tasting at our Members’ Rooms and celebrate together. If you can't make it to one of our venues, our Society Tasting Kit brings you everything you’ll need to host a whisky tasting in the comfort of your own home.

CLASSIC COCKTAILS
As nights draw in and autumn winds chill, it’s finally the season for comforting hot toddies to return. Hot water, honey and lemon, mixed with a good measure of whisky, complete the winter warmer.
