THE CREATORS COLLECTION

New wave

For The New Wave, we’ve brought together five of Scotland’s most exciting modern producers – each with its own sense of place and character.

The result is a collection that’s not just about what Scotch whisky is, it’s about where it’s going. We love these whiskies and we’re very excited by the future that each of this next generation of distilleries offer to our members.

THE CREATORS COLLECTION

Peat plants ii

The Creators Collection is a new series that brings liquid storytelling to life with our rarest whiskies, curated to create the ultimate whisky flights.

Peat Plants II is a bold return to Scotland’s Western Isles, where wind, sea, and fire shape whiskies of raw intensity. Drawing from Islay, Mull and beyond, this collection dives deep into the medicinal heart of peat - denser, darker, and rich with salt air and smoke. These are elemental drams that howl with coastal character and blaze with untamed spirit. This is the ultimate flight in West Coast peat.

TALES OF THE WORM TUB

The Creators Collection brings liquid storytelling to life, curated to create the ultimate whisky flights. Each release takes inspiration and imagination from the whisky makers, and creative collaborators, to celebrate unique flavour stories, presenting whisky as a creative work of art in beautifully designed one-of-a-kind bottles.

Our ‘Tales of the Worm Tub’ Creators Collection celebrates this old-school approach to whisky making and the bold, rich and robust flavours that this ancient form of condenser contributes to the final flavour of these drams.

The New Wave: A taste of our next generation gems

"Scotland’s distilling tradition dates back centuries, with some of the oldest distilleries still producing excellent whisky to this day. The last couple of decades have seen a flurry of activity, with new distilleries founded, each looking to continue that legacy. Our “New Wave” Creators Collection explores and celebrates some of these modern pioneers and provides members with a taste of what’s to come. We’ve worked with many of these newer distilleries from day one, filling our own casks in anticipation. Here were present some cracking drams for all to enjoy. The future looks bright!"

FORTIFIED: ADVENTURES IN AUSTRALIAN WINE CASKS

"Fortified wine casks are ideally suited to the maturation of Scotch whisky, and at the Society we are great advocates of the sherry cask. In our “Fortified” collection, we go further afield to explore casks from halfway around the world. A selection of whiskies matured in Australian fortified wine casks. We cover Tawny (one to try if you enjoy Port cask matured whiskies), Muscat (perhaps you have tried whisky matured in Moscatel casks before? Here’s one for you), and incredibly rare, fortified Chardonnay casks (quite frankly indescribably beautiful and rich, golden raisin whisky here). Join us to expand your cask horizons and experience something truly special."

peat plants ii

“This collection celebrates the powerful and medicinal nature of West Coast peat. We have selected a variety of expressions from Islay along with some similarly robust whisky from the Isle of Mull. These phenol-packed casks cover a spectrum from deeply tropical fruit and smoke through to intense carbolic character. There’s so much flavour diversity to be found in this collection, in both spirit style and cask type. A real celebration of peat.”

- Euan Campbell, Head of Whisky Creation

Tales of the Worm Tub Collection

“This trio provides a fascinating glimpse into the world of worm tub condensers. Here we have three whiskies from the same region, in the same flavour profile, yet each with their unique take on this old style of condenser. In each case, the maturation journey has imbued the whiskies with autumnal fruits, think bruised apples with brown sugar. These weightier spirits stand up well to such cask types, with their oily, nutty spirit character shining through. For me, the worm tubs add a deep and robust bass line, upon which the complex elements of each dram can be built.”

Whispers of Spring Collection

The Society’s Creators Collection, Whispers of Spring: A journey of reawakening, captures the subtle yet powerful energy of the season.

Each of the four bottles in the collection is designed to take you on a sensory journey, offering a unique take on traditional flavours. These casks have been left to mature to perfection over decades in refill wood. The result is a story of transformation and renewal that’s focussed on distinctive character rather than distillery history.

Watch the video to hear from Shona about her inspiration for this collection.

The Homecoming Collection

Homecoming: the essence of heritage is the second release from this series. It pairs the liquid art of whisky making with the illustrations of Leith-based artist, Shona Hardie, the artist behind Endless Discoveries, Infinite Adventures in The Vaults. The Homecoming collection is a tribute to the Society’s heritage, celebrating our spiritual home at The Vaults and its place within the history of Leith.

Each of the four bottles in the collection draws on the senses, connecting members to the past while embracing The Vaults in its present and future forms. Every sip is a celebration of tradition, offering a deeper connection with the Society.
