About Us

A whisky lover himself, Michael Portia owner of The Malt Social, created the platform in order to open the door to easy whisky collection. An avid collector, he quickly realised that those wishing to buy and trade rare bottles in Australia are at a distinct disadvantage when it comes to locating the best of the bunch. The Malt Social was born and has since created a platform to not only sell and auction distinct whisky but also to create a community of whisky lovers. Here, buyers and sellers come together to celebrate exceptional and delectable bottles from distilleries across the globe.

The Malt Social is a unique platform for purveyors of fine whisky. Not only does it allow a trusted venue to buy expertly authenticated bottles, but it also creates a place where sellers can get fair valuations for their bottles. From seasoned collectors to those just beginning to learn about the distilled and distinct tastes of whisky, The Malt Social is open to all. Invest in a tasty tipple for your bar menu, auction a limited release or special vintage from your distillery, or bid on a great gift for a friend. The Malt Social is your reliable source of information about all things whisky.
