Welcome
Our Society was founded on the spirit of discovery. Five strangers from Jakarta met in a whisky convention in Singapore, their collective passion for whisky led to the creation of Jakarta Whisky Research Society as a beacon to call upon like minded individuals to join us and explore the boundless world of whisky together.
As the society grew and welcomed more members from across the nation, on 18th August 2018 the JWRS changed its name to Indonesia Whisky Research Society and to accept members and chapters from all across the nation.
