DUWAS aims to bring together people from all backgrounds to discuss, compare but mostly to enjoy the wide-world of Whiskies. As a Society we endeavour to increase your knowledge of Whisky, whilst providing a fun sociable atmosphere throughout. We meet once per week in Durham, and aim to run events throughout the year, such as Whisky tasting sessions, external speakers, and trips to distilleries.
