About The Scotch Malt Whisky Society, The Vaults
The spiritual home of the Society, traditional and eclectic in its appearance, with a magnificent selection of single cask whisky and spirits. The history of the building dates back as far as the 12th century, with the current building completed in 1787. Originally a wine merchants bonded warehouse, we are continuing its affiliation to the wine and spirits industry, having been our home since 1983.
