About Us
Kelsey Smith - WWN founder
Back in 2018, Kelsey Smith had the initiative and drive to begin London’s first whisky event exclusively for women. Started out of Milroys of Soho, a specialist whisky bar founded in 1964, Women’s Whisky Night was a dedicated night every month where female representatives of brands would bring delightful drams to other women seeking them.
WWN weathered covid restrictions and lockdowns by organising home deliveries and zoom tastings, and now continues to grow, offering tastings and events out of Milroys of Soho’s East London sister venue - Milroys of Spitalfields.
Kelsey headed back to her native Australia, and so now the team is comprised of Thea Day and Charlotte Barker, both ex Milroys stalwarts. Charlotte now works for industry giant Diageo, and Thea now works behind the scenes at new Soho bar Dram.
