A Whisky Club of Southern Sweden 

SWS is a Malt Whisky society where the members meet once a month to sniff & zip some great Single Malt Whiskies in a relaxed but serious way. The tastings are usually "half-blind", i.e. we know what brands we test but not which one is which.
SWS was founded in 1991 by Joachim, Jonas, Ola and Christian. Soon Niclas and Stefan S. joined in. Together we took our first steps into the world of Malt Whisky. At first we decided to make Glenfiddich our reference. We all agreed on that nothing could possibly taste better.
Nowadays our taste and experience has improved. There is no such thing as the best whisky. It is all a matter of taste, but we can agree on that Lagavulin is a good candidate.
If someone wants to become a new member, he (or she) should first appear a few times as a guest. And then if all members aprove on him (or her), he can become a member. In 1994 Stefan Larsson was elected into SWS, and a few years later, 1998 to be exact, Patrik Olofsson was elected in.

Look at our travel book from SWS official tour to Scotland, and our new picture gallery.
