The world’s very first World Whisky Day took place in March 2012, and was organized by a 21-year-old student at the University of Aberdeen, by the name of Blair Bowman.
He created a website pushing #WorldWhiskyDay, on the third Saturday in May

As we're doing favourite distilleries on this #WorldWhiskyDay let's have a drop of peated loveliness from #Arran 🥃😍
Saturday night, watching Rogue One and it’s #worldwhiskyday - that calls for a new bottle to be opened. Working tomorrow so it’s the distinctly moreish Glen Moray Double Cask Cabernet Cask Finish. 40% ABV and full of chocolate and spice notes. Sláinte!
Brenne, Estate Cask French Single Malt, 40%, Cognac 🇫🇷

We know it's #WorldWhiskyDay and #PinotGrigioDay but the real drink on everyone's lips should be the milkshake. The first reference to the term that we understand today as a milkshake was in the 'Atlanta Constitution' published #onthisday (17 May 1886) 🍜
