Kingsbarns Distillery has announced that its Founders’ Club membership is now available to buy through an instalment plan.
The Founders’ Club is an exciting chance for 3000 whisky enthusiasts to enjoy being part of the beginning of this new distillery.
Distilling at Kingsbarns distillery officially started in January 2015, with the first cask filled in March that year.
Whilst the whisky is not yet mature enough to sample, the owners, Douglas Clement and the Wemyss family, opened The Visitor Centre in the meantime.
The single malt whisky will not be available until late into 2018.
By joining the founders club, members will enjoy a welcome pack consisting of a 20cl bottle of Kingsbarns Distillery New Make Spirit, a Founders’ Club Glencairn glass, a membership badge and welcome letter.
They will also be treated to special members’ events, such as the Founders’ Club dinners and a free daytime tour that is taking place on September 3rd – where current members will be the first to taste the 18-month-old spirit drawn from the very first cask.
William Wemyss, one of the Wemyss family owners and Managing Director of Kingsbarns Distillery comments, “The first ever bottles of Kingsbarns Single Malt will be bottled exclusively for members of our Founders’ Club. It is expected that some of the first casks ever filled will be selected for this first bottling around mid-2018. Members will receive a bottle of this exclusive Kingsbarns Founders’ Club Reserve, enabling them to become one of the very first to taste Kingsbarns Single Malt. Following that, each year for 4 subsequent years, members will receive a further Founders’ Club Reserve bottle, allowing members to enjoy the progression of our single malt.”
Membership is priced £500 plus shipping charges, ranging from the UK at £40, Europe at £90, the USA at £160 and other selected parts of the world at £300.
Membership can be purchased in one payment or now spread over 12 months for an additional £20 administration charge.
