As you might already know, whisky club and bottler the Scotch Malt Whisky Society (SMWS) has returned to Singapore, collaborating with its Singapore representative, La Maison du Whisky (LMDW). 

Bottles will be available to the general public, but SMWS Singapore members will have special access to the lineup, discounts on tasting sessions as well as discounted prices by the pour at partner bars. You can find more details here:–

Here are the bottles we can soon expect from SMWS Singapore. We'll be looking at single malts from the likes of a lightly-peated Bowmore, Laphroaig, Fettercairn, Stratisla, Glen Moray, Glenturret and Glasgow Distillery, just to name a few! There'll also be one from a particularly coveted Speyside distillery we shall not naMe.

But in the spirit of the SMWS community, we won't be sharing with you the answers outright, just the distillery numbers!
