Put the fire back in your glass.
Every month, a tasting set arrives at your door. Then we meet live to experience it together. Not a stuffy club. Not a webinar. A movement of enthusiasts, united by whiskies that stir the soul.

The warmth of the glass in your hand. The complexity of the nose. The way the liquid catches the light. These sensations demand your presence — and tastings remain constrained by geography. We read tasting notes and watch videos, but we never truly experience it properly. The craftsmanship remains distant. The story untold.
A physical tasting box. A live moment. A shared experience.
We send a carefully selected tasting box straight to your door. Then we meet online — not for a lecture, but for a lively, relaxed tasting where the story of each distillery meets an audience ready to listen, nose, taste and share.
« This is not content. It is a genuine encounter. »
Everything you need for a tasting, as if you were there.
Four steps, one ritual.
The selection
We choose the whiskies of the month for their character and their story.
Delivery
Your box arrives at your home, ready for the occasion.
The live tasting
We meet live: we taste, talk and explore together.
The replay
The experience lives on. Come back whenever you like, at your own pace.
No one had ever connected the glass with the community.
Subscription boxes send products. Channels broadcast content. La Guilde does both — and brings them together, live, around your glass.
Live, never pre-recorded
Every tasting takes place in real time. Authenticity cannot be edited. You are truly there.
The story before the product
Whisky is the medium. What we share with you is the knowledge, the context and the maker's passion.
A movement, not a club
Here, experts share their knowledge and beginners bring their curiosity. There is no judgement. We move forward together.
Hervé Chevalley, your guide to whisky.
A lawyer by training, he has been passionate about Scotland and whisky for years. He has explored distilleries, met distillers and listened to their stories — and he shares them without jargon or snobbery.
In less than a year, without spending a single euro on advertising, his community brought together 12 900 subscribers on YouTube, 30 500 on Instagram and 10 000 on TikTok. If you already follow him, you know how much he shares for free. The box is the next step: experiencing the tasting together.
Your monthly whisky date.
Experience whisky differently every month.
Do the maths: 49.– per month, that is 1,63.– per day — less than a coffee. And far less than a good bottle chosen at random (50 to 150.–)… except that here, someone you trust has already chosen for you.
Monthly
- 3 whiskies & tasting notes
- Access to every monthly live tasting
- Lifetime replay access
- No commitment, cancel at any time

They stopped watching. They are tasting.
« I discovered distilleries I would never have come across otherwise. And the live tasting has become my monthly date with whisky culture. »
« At last, a way to taste without sitting alone with your glass. We learn, laugh and share. »
« The box is beautiful and the whiskies are sophisticated. You can tell they have been selected to exacting standards. »
What you want to know.
What exactly is in a box?
Three 5 cl whisky samples, accompanied by tasting notes. Depending on the month, these are three expressions from the same distillery or three whiskies from three different producers — always selected for their character and their story.
How does the live tasting work?
On a set date, we meet live to taste the whiskies in the box together. We explore, discuss and tell the stories of the distilleries. Cannot make it? The replay remains available for life.
Can I cancel whenever I want?
The monthly plan has no minimum term and can be cancelled at any time from your customer account.
Do you deliver to my address?
We deliver to Switzerland and France, with delivery charges already included in the price. Your order will be delivered from the hub nearest to you.
Do you have to be 18?
Yes. Our boxes contain alcohol and are strictly reserved for people aged 18 and over. Proof of age may be required when ordering and upon delivery.
