Whiskey Society Memberships
Once a month our Master Blender finishes a whiskey made for Society members and no one else. You get the bottle. You get the room where it's opened. And you get first call on every other release we make — before it reaches a shelf. Olde Raleigh was named Best Micro Distillery in the World at the 2023 International Whisky Competition. The Society is how you drink what we're proudest of.

Frequently Asked Questions

A different one every month, chosen and blended by our Master Blender. Members find out when the bottle is released — that's part of it.
Can I cancel?
Any time, with no penalty. Membership is month to month.
What if I can't get in within three months?
We safely store saved bottles for up to 6 months. Unclaimed bottles are released after this period. We proudly support our military service members—if you are on active duty deployment, please reach out so we can extend your hold.
Is sales tax included?
Bottle sales tax is added at pickup or checkout.
Can I give a membership as a gift?
Absolutely! To gift a Whiskey Society Membership, simply sign up using the gift recipient’s information. Since membership bottles are shipped quarterly and nothing is sent immediately after checkout, the membership should be set up under the name and information of the person receiving the gift.
