Summary
Find out the dates, history and traditions of World Whisky Day

World Whisky Day invites everyone to try a dram and celebrate the water of life.

Taking place annually on the third Saturday in May, this special occasion is celebrated by whisky lovers worldwide with tastings, events and gatherings. Although this year and last have been a little different, our guiding principles have remained the same. World Whisky Day is about making whisky fun for all, not about being exclusive or prescriptive.

All you need to participate is a bottle of whisky/whiskey – whatever variety, however you enjoy it. The only rule is to drink responsibly!
