World Whiskey Society Announces The Launch of New Subscription Service

Society Subscription membership welcomes a limited edition 12-year-old Kentucky Bourbon finished in ex-Macallan barrels

NEW YORK, Feb. 20, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- World Whiskey Society (WWS), known for scouring the globe to create the world's most interesting whiskeys, is thrilled to announce the launch of the World Whiskey Society Membership. Designed for connoisseurs and enthusiasts alike, this exclusive membership program offers unparalleled access to the world of fine whiskey, blending community experiences with exclusive benefits that reflect the prestige and excellence synonymous with the World Whiskey name.

The World Whiskey Society Membership has been carefully crafted with two distinctive tiers to cater to the diverse needs of our community:

1. Society Access — Free Membership:
Society Access is an open invitation for all whiskey lovers to immerse themselves in the World Whiskey experience. This free tier provides:

• Exclusive content, including behind-the-scenes insights, tasting notes, and expert commentary.
• Invitations to community-driven events and experiences, both virtual and in-person.
• Early access to announcements about upcoming releases and reserve collections.

2. Society Subscription — Premium Membership:
For those seeking a truly elevated whiskey experience, the Society Subscription offers all the benefits of Society Access, along with these exceptional perks:

• Quarterly Releases: Receive exclusive World Whiskey Reserve releases delivered directly to your door. These exceptional whiskeys are curated exclusively for Society Subscription members and are unavailable anywhere else.

The first Members Reserve subscription release welcomes a limited edition 12-year-old Kentucky Bourbon finished in ex-Macallan barrels, yielding a true expression of craftsmanship and elegance. This bourbon delivers a harmonious balance of classic Kentucky bourbon characteristics, enhanced by the rich, smoky influence of the Macallan barrels.

The aroma opens with a bold, smoky peat influence, complemented by subtle hints of dried fruit, leather, and a delicate touch of citrus zest, offering a layered complexity. On the palate, the bourbon's signature sweetness emerges first, followed swiftly by a rush of smoky peat. Dried fruits, such as raisins and plums, mingle with a hint of spice, while the heavy oakiness adds depth and balance. The finish is long and smoky, with the peat lingering alongside a delicate warmth of spice and charred oak. The ex-Macallan barrels introduce an additional smoky dimension, enhancing the bourbon's familiar vanilla and oak notes with a refined complexity.

• 5% Discount: Enjoy 5% off all World Whiskey purchases, allowing members to expand your collection with ease.
• Priority access to limited-edition offerings and special reserve collections.

"The World Whiskey Society Membership represents the next evolution of our commitment to the whiskey community," says Alex Kogan, Founder of World Whiskey Society. "We've built this program to offer our members more than just exceptional whiskey. It's about connection, discovery, and sharing our passion for the craft with a like-minded community.
