Welcome to the Aurora Whisky Society

getting ready

Welcome to the Aurora Whisky Society website! Although still in its infancy, we hope to make this a place where fellow whisky enthusiast can learn about upcoming events, share an experience or two about their favorite drams, contribute to spirit reviews and overall just have a place to connect and share information about the intriguing world of whisky. 

We hold regular tasting events that provide our membership and guests with an opportunity to connect while enjoying a fine meal and sipping a selection of five or more  interesting drams. Our core membership group is currently at capacity, however each event generally does have room for a number of guests to partake in the tasting. Check back frequently for updated reviews and upcoming event information. Feel free to reach out at This email address is being protected from spambots.

"If you mean whisky, the devil's brew, the poison scourge, the bloody monster that defiles innocence, dethrones reason, destroys the home, creates misery and poverty, yea, literally takes the bread from the mouths of little children; if you mean that evil drink that topples men and women from the pinnacles of righteous and gracious living into the bottomless pit of degradation, shame, despair, helplessness and hopelessness, then, my friend, I am opposed to it with every fibre of my being."

"However, if by whisky you mean the oil of conversation, the philosophic wine, the elixir of life, the ale that is consumed when good fellows get together, that puts a song in their hearts and the warm glow of contentment in their eyes; if you mean good cheer, the stimulating sip that puts a little spring in the step of an elderly gentleman on a frosty morning; if you mean that drink that enables man to magnify his joy, and to forget life's great tragedies and heartbreaks and sorrow; if you mean that drink the sale of which pours into our treasuries untold millions of pounds each year, that provides tender care for our little crippled children, our blind, our deaf, our dumb, our pitifully aged and infirm, to build the finest highways, hospitals, universities, and community colleges in this nation... then my friend, I am absolutely, unequivocally in favour of it..!!!"

"This is my position, and as always, I refuse to compromise on matters of principle!!!"

Sir Winston Churchill
