About The Artisanal Spirits Company
ASC's purpose is to captivate a
global community of whisky adventurers, creating and selling
outstanding, one-of-a-kind whisky and experiences around the world
with an ambition to create a high quality, highly profitable and
cash generative, premium global business.
Based in Edinburgh, ASC owns The
Scotch Malt Whisky Society (SMWS), Single Cask Nation (SCN) and
J.G. Thomson (JGT), as well as operating a cask storage, bottling
and logistics facility in Scotland. Owning over 17,000 casks
primarily comprising Single Malt Scotch Whisky, ASC's stock
includes outstanding whisky (and other spirits) from 150 different
distilleries across 20 countries which is sold both as individual
bottles and whole casks.
Established in 1983, SMWS currently
has a growing worldwide membership of over 41,000 paying members.
With an established global presence in c.30 countries, SMWS
operates a direct-to-consumer model (90% of revenue) primarily
through e-commerce, in addition to four member rooms in the UK.
SMWS provides members with inspiring experiences, content and
exclusive access to a vast and unique range of outstanding,
expertly curated, single cask Scotch malt whiskies.
In January 2024, ASC acquired SCN
which sources, curates and bottles single-cask whiskies and other
spirits selling both online and via traditional retail channels to
its following of over 10,000 whisky enthusiasts in the US.
SCN also retails to international markets including the UK,
Germany, Sweden, Japan, Israel and Canada.
Launched in the UK in late 2021, JGT
has a focus on outstanding small batch blended malt whiskies and
other spirits, available both through direct-to-consumer online
sales and through traditional retail channels. The award-winning
brand has subsequently expanded into international
markets.
With proven e-commerce reach and a
growing family of brands, ASC is building a portfolio of
limited-edition and small-batch whisky and other spirits brands for
a global movement of discerning consumers - delivering revenue of
c.£23 million in FY23 with over 80% of revenue generated online,
predominantly from outside the UK, with presence in the other key
global whisky markets including USA, China, Europe, Japan,
Australia and Taiwan.
ASC has a pioneering business model,
a substantial and growing addressable market presenting a long-term
global growth opportunity and a strong and resilient business
primed to deliver growth.
