As part of its 40th anniversary celebrations, The Scotch Malt Whisky Society debuted a monthly single malt whiskey subscription service by the name of Drop & Dram. Members will receive a box containing three limited-edition 50ml bottles of a cask-strength single malt, plus tasting notes to guide their experience of the expression. Whisky lovers will also get access to exclusive videos that provide insights about the stories and flavors, shared by brand ambassadors.
Drop & Dram subscribers will also become members of The Scotch Malt Whisky Society, granting them access to purchase exclusive products and attend exclusive events and tastings.
The curated boxes will explore a different theme and those who subscribe to the first one can look forward to first-fill casks and expressions like Shrimps in the Sauna, Tweed-clad Picnic Hamper and All the Fun of the Flicks.
