The An Quaich Society is an organization through which members may obtain specially selected, quality single malt whiskies from Scotland that are unavailable from local liquor stores. An Quaich is pronounced "An-quake"; add a back "ch" as in "Loch Ness" if you can! The Society is dedicated to helping those interested individuals increase their knowledge, appreciation, and enjoyment of single malt whisky. To learn more, why not attend a meeting in your area? An Quaich was founded in Ottawa in 1983 as a result of the founder being unable to obtain a particular brand of scotch malt whisky from a local liquor store. A full case was specially ordered and readily shared by friends. Thus was formed An Quaich. The Society continues to bring together a growing number of people who have a common interest in, and fascination for, single malt whisky. The Society provides a means for sharing and developing that interest, both for the novice and the enthusiast, through regular nosings and tastings and exchanges of news, views, and ideas. An Quaich has grown from that initial group in 1983 to now include almost one thousand members who meet in twenty chapters throughout Ontario. Membership is open to anyone living in Canada and there are already members across the country.
