FUNDAMENTALS OF FLAVOUR \u2013 DISCOVERY IN EVERY BOTTLE:<\/strong> Uncork a Society whisky and it\u2019s the start of a jam-packed journey into fantastical flavours, according to Kami Newton<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

SMWS AND SHERRY \u2013 MADE TO ORDER: <\/strong>Since legislation changed in Spain in the 1980s to determine that all sherry had to be bottled there before it was exported, there\u2019s now no such thing as a sherry \u2018transport\u2019 cask. That has led to a whole industry dedicated to building and seasoning casks with sherry, specifically for the whisky industry, as Richard Goslan<\/strong> reports.<\/p>\n

DISTILLERY PROFILE \u2013 A TALE OF TWO JAPANESE DISTILLERIES:<\/strong> The Society is delighted to introduce whisky from the Japanese whisky maker Hombo Shuzo, whose roots go back to the 19th<\/sup> century, and which was instrumental in the country\u2019s development of a Scottish style of single malt. Richard Goslan<\/strong> finds out more about their Mars Komagatake and Mars Tsunuki distilleries.<\/p>\n

FLAVOUR FOCUS \u2013 THE WORLD OF WASHBACKS: <\/strong>Ever stuck your head in a washback on a distillery tour? The powerful reactions taking place are crucial in transforming the wort into wash, and creating essential flavours along the way. Gavin D Smith<\/strong> has more.<\/p>\n

FESTIVAL SEASON \u2013 JOIN THE HUNT:<\/strong> This May, as the whisky festivals across Scotland beckon, we invite you to embark on a journey with us \u2013 the Flavour Hunters \u2013 where every dram tells a tale of discovery and delight.<\/p>\n

SMWS 50TH<\/sup> ANNIVERSARY CASK CLUB:<\/strong> Join The Scotch Malt Whisky Society\u2019s exclusive 50th Anniversary Cask Club and embark on a captivating journey with peated whisky casks from Distillery 42.<\/p>\n

SINGLE CASK SPIRITS \u2013 EMBRACE ARMAGNAC:<\/strong> Armagnac might not have the profile of cognac, but as France\u2019s oldest eau-de-vie it can be a hidden treasure. If you haven\u2019t experienced it yet, the Society\u2019s bottlings are the perfect introduction.<\/p>\n<\/div>
