1) Charles Tyrwhitt #SWIG
For the past month, I've been playing with investment options to bring SWIG worldwide.
I considering myself fortunate then, to get an early morning meeting with Nick Wheeler.
(He & his SO own Charles Tyrwhitt and the White Company respectively. What a team!).
Good news.. he's decided to invest.
...The only condition is that I have to sell 200 flasks online in March
*without spending a penny!*

(Just 18 days to go!).

2) Pinterested in SWIG?
On suggestion from Society member John (#00565), I made a SWIG® Pinterest.
These are my favourites. What do you think? (Pin 'em!)
3) The Story of SWIG®
Why did I sell all of my stuff and move to London to start a hip flask brand?
- Rodney of MiBusinessMag came by the SWIG studio to investigate.
(Read: 'Take a SWIG')
-
Afterwards, I podcasted my step-by-steps with Matt and Nick from 'ArtofBiz'.
(Listen: ITunes / Browser)
-
Finished off on location with my trusty #00002 flask and Fern Green Pouch.

4) SWIG n' Steak Charity Auction
In an effort to raise money for mens cancer prevention, my friend and I combined the notoriety of our projects (SWIG® and 'Steak & BJ Day') to setup a Bespoke SWIG® charity auction.
The result was raising £150 through a hand drawn pouch design by our favourite duo of Vincenzo and Stefano from Italian animation studio 'Nucco Brain')
Thanks so much to everyone who bid. Congrats to the winner!
5) Member Refill Advice
"What would you put in your SWIG®?
"A Whisky!... Now, I guess there is so many, but I'd say Bruichladdich!
I have a soft spot for them. Their Bruichladdich Cuvee 382 La Berenice (a 21 year old) is not something that you will see in the whisky shops that often.
I think your flasks would be a very fine match for their whiskies.

Editors Note: "Have a look at their store here. I agree, their product is amazing. Anyone like to see a Bruichladdich SWIG pouch in the future?" - David

7) Honorary Swigger ('s).
Nick and his brother (Society Members #00666 and #00667) e-mailed me to show off their brand new SWIG® flask and accompanying cycling adventure.
What's inside the Rusted Brown pouch? Well, unsure... but I'm sure it's keeping the trip a soft one!
