SMWS The Five Regions 11 Year Old Batch 39 Bourbon, Oloroso, PX & HTMC Hogshead Matured Blended Malt Scotch Whisky (2026) 70cl

A blended malt with all scotch regions in one bottle

The Scotch Malt Whisky Society was founded in Edinburgh in 1983 by Phillip 'Pip' Hills who, while travelling around Scotland in the 1970s, fell in love with whiskies drawn straight from the cask. After he expanded his syndicate the Society was purchased by Glenmorangie PLC in 2004. In 2015, the Society was sold back to private investors. In June 2021, the private owners floated the holding company The Artisanal Spirits Company plc on the Alternative Investment Market of the London Stock Exchange.

It has a unique code system where the first number refers to the distillery and the second refers to the cask from which the bottle comes. SMWS also offers the largest range of distilleries of any independent bottler. These curiously named drams really do have something for every whisky lover!

When they created Batch 31 (2025 release), Wandering Alchemy, their whisky team blended a larger volume than required with the intention of re-casking a portion for further maturation and marrying. This batch is made up of that very whisky, one year on. A celebration of all five whisky producing regions, with notes of sweet wines, decadent desserts and rich smoky undertones.

TASTING NOTES

A formidable bouquet greeted the Panel nosing neat. The scent was mouthwatering, like fudge doughnuts with a creamy custard filling, alcohol-infused chocolate truffles and glacé cherries. Yet there were also antique aromas such as wood varnish, teak oil, old leather-bound ledgers and a vintage wooden potpourri holder. On the palate, the initial sweet wood smoke of smouldering cedar incense sticks preceded delicate, floral flavours of heather and wild lavender honey, as well as caramelised apple slices. With a drop of water we opened a bottle of vin santo, a Tuscan sweet wine with that typical aroma of ripe and dried fruits, hints of dark chocolate-covered macadamias, nutmeg and star anise, alongside roasted coffee beans. The taste – silky smooth, slightly tangy –reminded us of a walnut romesco sauce with a trace of smoked paprika in the finish.
