Discover and try new, rare and delicious whisky every month. We believe that you deserve to enjoy the water of life every month and that you should not have to worry about spending hundreds of dollars on something that you may not enjoy. We take the risk away from you and let you experience the best the world has to offer.

The prices in the title are before the discount is applied.

What is The Whisky Order?

The Whisky Order is a new and prestigious club designed to give whisky lovers access to some of the best whisky in the world and the chance to discover exciting new malts.

How does it work?

Each month we curate a selection of the best 4-5 malts from a particular theme such as "peaty monsters, whisky of the world or old school scotch." We want to give you access to the best whisky around.

How is the whisky selected?

Alas, we must toil and sweat over samples each month. We conduct extensive 'research' on each drop we send out to ensure it meets our high standards and expectations. If it meets The Whisky Order gold standard then we might just have to 'research' it some more. Eventually we send it to you too…

Can I purchase a subscription as a gift?

Of course! Simply select "gift purchase" in the checkout and you can give the best gift of all to someone you love. It's a known fact that givers of whisky make the best lovers.

When will I get my box?

Each box will ship on the third Monday of the month. It will usually take from 3-5 days to receive your order depending on location.

        On a serious note do you review many Japanese Whiskeys ?

        • wilko23 on 07/05/2015 - 15:34

          I don't review any whiskies, I just drink them! This isn't my company, I just received a box of it and thought its a great idea that others might like to hear about

    An example of what you might receive…

    Armut Fusion (Indian), New World Projects (Australian) Ginger beer cask, Suntory Hibiki 12 yo (Japanese), Gordon and Macphail (Scotland Imperial 1995, Single Pot Stills (Irish)

      I'd sign up if I knew I was getting a Suntory Hibiki.

    • pseidus on 07/05/2015 - 16:12

      wilko, are these 5 whiskies you've listed from a single batch you previously received?

      • wilko23 on 07/05/2015 - 16:19

        Yeah, its the only one ive received, I think this has only just started so it may even have been the first batch sent out?

  • siraitken on 07/05/2015 - 15:40

    $59.96 per month for 150ml. Equivalent to $299.80 per 750ml bottle.

    That's expensive whisky to mix with coke.

    • wilko23 on 07/05/2015 - 15:51

      The cost of variety, if you were to buy say 6 single premium beers at the bottle-o you might pay $36 for a six pack? $144 for a carton?! That expensive right? Bulk buy v small quantity + variety, its a common outcome with many things.

    • bargdebarg on 07/05/2015 - 17:04

      That's expensive whisky.

  • patinadiary on 07/05/2015 - 15:46

    how big are these samples? the bottles don't look bigger than 15ml?

    • airzone on 07/05/2015 - 15:49

      "Each month you will be sent up to 5 unique 30ml tastings"

      • Sober Thoughts on 07/05/2015 - 15:57
        +9

        30mls, your kidding right? I use more than that to brush my teeth!

  • Kozhutki on 07/05/2015 - 15:53

    Cool idea, would prefer slightly cheaper though considering the size of the bottles.

    • wilko23 on 07/05/2015 - 15:54

      yeah I agree, the cost does command a high quality product to be sent out. You would expect to be tasting some relatively expensive drams at times!

  • adam149 on 07/05/2015 - 15:58

    good idea, poorly done. If they were able to give people the variety at a similar rate to the equivalent 700ml then could work.

    For $59 per month, you could put that aside in a your bank account and just go to dans and buy the bottle every few months.

    • wilko23 on 07/05/2015 - 16:16

      Valid point, but then in a few months you might go to dans and buy a whisky you don't like?

    • pseidus on 07/05/2015 - 16:33
      +1

      Agree this is a good idea, but too expensive. The average prices of those whiskies are about $120 per 700ml bottle (Amrut's only 85 at Dans). Given that, the RRP of 5 x 30ml samples is about $25. That's a massive premium to pay for variety.
      I'd be more inclined to sign up if it was cheaper or they plan to include some more expensive whiskies up above the $150 range in their future batches.

  • adam149 on 07/05/2015 - 16:01

    This is a borderline scam. They might as well soak a towel in whisky then ring it into our mouths until we get a few drops.

  • RyanMK on 07/05/2015 - 16:28

    I'd say I'll be interested in giving it a go if the price isn't so steep, especially not knowing what quality whiskey I'll be getting.

    Maybe, if you feel the price is justified, try offering a introductory price/larger discount for the first 2-3 months to get customers on board. If the samples are well worth it, I'll be happy to continue @ the full price after.

  • ravstaa on 07/05/2015 - 16:48

    Yeah, Seems a bit expensive for 30ml. Regardless of the quality. Note, that once a month I go to Dan Murphys with the express mission of trying out whiskies on their tasting Table. I've found this to be a great way of discovering new whiskies. Loving Penderyn Madeira at the moment.

  • ilikeradiohead on 07/05/2015 - 17:00

    Interesting concept, but far too expensive I think. If it's $120 whisky, you're better off getting a bottle every two months. After 10 months you have the same variety (as one month admittedly), but 14 times the amount.

  • bargdebarg on 07/05/2015 - 17:04

    Hi, not a bargain.

  • patinadiary on 07/05/2015 - 18:00

    This is expensive, you can receive samples from the below website for whisky you wanted to taste, even though shipping is prohibitively expensive, it beats waiting to receive 'mystery' whisky each month only to realise it is something you've already had before.

    As an avid whisky fan no dice. Way too many problems with this to list.

    If you are considering this deal, do yourself a favor and spend the $12 per shot on some whisky you've never had before next time you go to a bar.
