Derby Whisky Club: The New Breed

For too long, the so-called “classics” like Macallan 12 or Laphroaig 10 have been stripped back – bottled at 40% ABV, chill-filtered, and padded out with caramel colouring. The magic that made them legendary has been watered down.

But fear not – a new breed of whiskies has arrived. Bold, uncompromising, and bursting with flavour, these modern drams are winning critical acclaim and winning over serious whisky drinkers.

On the night, we’ll explore six exceptional whiskies including:
🥃 The best sherried alternative
🔥 A peated dram that outsmokes the old guard
🍀 A modern Irish that’s rewriting the rules
🏴 A whisky many say is the perfect Springbank substitute
✨ The ideal gateway whisky for newcomers
🇺🇸 Plus, bourbons brought straight from the States for a taste of American firepower

And because nothing goes to waste, we’ll finish with a raffle of the leftover bottles – giving you the chance to take a piece of the night home.

Friendly, relaxed, and full of flavour – this is a whisky tasting that proves the future has never tasted better.
