For whisky lovers based in and around York.

We’re a not-for-profit club with an aim to share a passion for whisky with as many people as possible. In our first year (2022), we tasted drams from the new and unusual to old and rare, from Orkney to Australia, introducing people to whisky and surprising seasoned collectors. We were part of the York Food and Drink Festival, with paired tastings involving cheese and chocolate, and finished the year with a Christmas Micro-Festival bringing the experience of a larger festival to our growing York Whisky Community. Now entering our 3rd year (2024), we’ve got our largest lineup yet with plans for an expanded Summer Festival and a repeat of our 2023 Dream Drams tasting that blew away all attendees. If you love whisky, then check out the kind of tastings we do, and get on the mailing list!

The SE23 Whisky club has been going for over nine years. We meet every two weeks on Tuesdays at 8pm in a pub in Forest Hill. Between 10 and 15 people usually attend each meeting to learn about whisky, understand more about how it is made, and which flavours we most enjoy.
At most meetings we sample six small whiskies with a particular theme, and in doing so we learn more about the process of making whisky – including the water, the barrels and the shape of the stills.
Many of the meetings are hosted by brand ambassadors, and we have had visits from ambassadors from Macallan, Suntory, Benriach/Glendronach, Chivas/Glenlivet, Whisky Exchange, Maverick Drinks, Paul John and Port Askaig.
Within the club are a few very knowledgeable individuals (with rather impressive personal whisky collections), but most are novices who just want to know more about whisky and explore the vast range of whiskies available.
The club is open to anybody. Our events have a small charge to cover the cost of the whisky for the evening, usually around £20.

Venue: Forest Hill, SE23
