  • OK. A bit of Googling gave me the following articles

    There may be others so please add to the list. @DethBeard I'd be interested in what your broker says.

    A couple of thoughts on this list

    1. To get anything from a distillery known for single malts you need to spend ££££
    2. I've not heard of any of these for single malts so that tells me a couple of things
      a) these could be new entrants to the market (possible but distilleries and licensing are expensive yo)
      b) these are more likely commercial distilleries that make whisky that ends up in lots of blends (Chivas, Jonny Walker, and other blends sold for export). They are not necessarily bad quality, just an unknown quality to us. There are a lot of these around and you will see lots of them around Speyside.
      c) these are originally distilleries from b) looking for new revenue sources
      d) Straight up ignore either Pendryn or The Yorkshire one. Just no.
