The Artisanal Spirits Company, based in Edinburgh, Scotland, operates as a beverage producer and curator of premium, single-cask and limited-edition whiskies. It owns The Scotch Malt Whisky Society, a club established in 1983 that provides members with access to a broad range of single-cask Scotch malts and other craft spirits, sourced from more than 100 distilleries in 20 countries. Since the society began releasing casks, it has produced about 10,000 distinct whisky releases. ASC maintains a growing portfolio of small-batch spirits brands, including J.G. Thomson, aimed at a global community of discerning consumers and with a multi-market presence in the UK, China, the USA, and Europe. The company has diversified its distribution through e-commerce and has pursued international expansion, and in 2025 launched a private luxury Artisan Casks programme, also expanding into India and Vietnam.
