Are whisky subscriptions worth it?
Whisky subscriptions are a great way to try a range of whiskies from different brands and types you might not find locally.
They’re also incredibly convenient, with regular deliveries to your door to save you time and effort depending on your membership tier.
Many subscriptions or clubs also offer selections curated by experts, which can be educational and elevate your tasting experience. Some also include access to exclusive events, tastings, and online communities of whisky enthusiasts.
Please remember to drink responsibly. If you or someone you know needs help, please call the National Alcohol and Other Drug hotline on 1800 250 015 or call Lifeline on 13 11 14.
