Everyone sooner or later seems to have this question, "What does number "x" on the SMWS bottle mean?" The SMWS reached agreement with the whisky industry to not overtly identify the specific distillery on the label of its bottlings. So instead, the distillery is assigned a code number and each member of the society is given a decoder sheet. Invariably, a nonmember or a member who has lost their decoder sheet, wants to know what the distillery numbers are. TO that end, here is the latest list of distillery codes for the SMWS bottlings:
1. Glenfarclas 38. Caperdonich 76. Mortlach 2. The Glenlivet 39. Linkwood 77. Glen Ord/Glenordie 3. Bowmore 40. Balvenie 78. Ben Nevis 4. Highland Park 41. Dailuaine 79. Deanston 5. Auchentoshan 42.
