SMWS Codes vs Whiskey Rater

The Scotch Malt Whisky Society does an amazing job of making so many whiskies (and other spirits) available to us, however it can be a challenge to remember the codes to your favorite distilleries, much less to the other 150+ distilleries. The purpose of this app is to make it a bit easier to access these codes. There are numerous websites that have listed the codes and I wish to thank all of those who took the time to track them down and make them available. But I often found myself consulting those sites and scrolling through the long lists thinking that there must be a quicker, easier way to look up the info. That is the purpose of this app and I hope you find it as useful as I do.

Whiskey Rater is the private, offline-first way to catalog every whisky you try — bourbon, scotch, rye, Irish, Japanese, and beyond. Snap a photo of the bottle and let the built-in label scanner extract the name, distillery, age, ABV, and region for you. Rate each dram on a 1–10 scale, add your tasting notes, tag the flavour profile, and build a collection you can browse, sort, and search. Everything stays on your device. No account. No cloud. No ads. FEATURES • Label scanner — point your camera at a bottle and pull out the name, distillery, age, ABV, and region with on-device Apple Vision. No network required. • Rich detail for every bottle — name, distillery, type, age, ABV, region, cask type, price paid, currency, flavour tags, and unlimited tasting notes. • Rate on a 1–10 scale with taps or VoiceOver-friendly adjustable controls. • Multiple photos per bottle — front label, back label, and anything else worth remembering. • Wishlist mode — track bottles you want to try, then promote them to your collection when you finally taste them. • Collection stats dashboard — see your average rating, favourite distilleries, type breakdown, and how your collection has grown. • Filter, sort, and search by name, distillery, type, rating, region, favourites, or status. • Share your bottles — generate a beautiful tasting card to send to friends. • Export and back up — CSV, JSON, or a printable PDF catalogue.
