This is us
We are what we do. And what we do is Whisky.
In the beginningThe society was founded in 2013 by Bob, Andy & Mark after a stay on Islay supporting a charity event and visiting 5 distilleries in the process. We continue the charity ethos with our annual fund raising night.

Society NightsThe last Friday in the month is our night to come together and enjoy an evening of whisky tasting mixed with chat and music.
|
And There's MoreThrough out the year we bring whisky ambassadors to our society nights to spread the love of whisky. On top of this we organise events for members like trip to distilleries and other interesting venues.

Chairman Andy, AKA @ardbaggie (twitter name) is a fanatical whisky fan. As the chairman and a west midlands lad through and through. He lives in Wollaston, loves a good dram, a pint of real ale, a pork pie (with mustard) and when he's not cheering on the baggies you'll find him clay pigeon shooting or riding his bike.

MARK PARSONSTreasurer & SecretaryMark, a fellow football fan (Exeter City) first found whisky many many years ago now and hasn't looked back. When he's not enjoying whisky you will find him looking for every opportunity to get out on his bike (usually with Andy and the Wollaston Wobblers) or putting the top down on this car and go for a drive.

Our society nights are held at The Duke William, Stourbridge on the last Friday of every month, with the tastings starting from 8pm. If you want come along and see what we are all about, you are more than welcome. All we ask is that you let us know before so we can prepare for you. We wouldn't want to not have enough whisky to go around would we now...
