About us

J.G. Thomson was originally a wine & spirits merchant with its roots dating back to the 1700s and occupied the Vaults in Leith – the now home of The Scotch Malt Whisky Society. We are inspired by this savvy Edinburgh family we’ve taken as our namesake and we push forward now with the same founding principles; to create new and exciting tastes that tantalise the adventurous. We want to capture the opportunity that has emerged on the wave of craft and artisanal spirits. Our customers are those who search for spirits that offer a diverse and authentic experience.

The event was an impressive spectacle, and we were blown away by the efforts of Jaroslaw Buss and his team from Tudor House. Their dedication to creating such an enjoyable and well-organized whisky show was truly remarkable. 🎉🥃 It was evident that Jaroslaw's incredible passion and determination to educate the Polish market about the wonders of whisky are unmatched. His hard work and commitment are a credit to the whisky industry. Well done Jarek and thanks for your support! 👏👏 We would also like to extend our heartfelt thanks to Edyta Saks and the wider British Embassy Warsaw team, for their exceptional organization and support. Their efforts were second to none and greatly contributed to the success of the event. 🙏 J.G. Thomson & Co. was overwhelmed by the level of interest in our brand from consumers, retailers, bar owners, and distributors. For any distributors who were unable to visit our stand, we would be pleased to open discussions regarding J.G.
