The BEST Scotch whiskies you've never heard of

[@PatrikBruckner]

Great choices Richard! 41 and 66´s have become firm favourites for me, since joining The Society!!

Thanks Patrik, yes the consistency of the SMWS releases from these distilleries is fantastic...let us know of any other lesser-known distilleries that we should shine the spotlight on!

Richard, I can see a wee series of these 'lesser-knowns' ! So many and so unsung. Glad for the society giving members a chance to experience them. :

Good idea Richard - definitely lots to choose from that fly under the radar for lots of people. We'll be writing up regular features in Unfiltered on these 'lesser-knowns' but plenty scope for more videos as well!

Good stuff. Agree on 48's but have yet to try an older bottling. Recent discovery for me has been 18 (Inchgower). Beautiful balance of fruitiness and sweetness. Hope to see more 18's. Cheers

Thanks Bill - look out for something in September UK Outturn from distillery 18 that might be right up your street...

I've always really enjoyed independent Glen Spey, Linkwood, and Longmorn.

[@TheScotchMaltWhiskySocietyUK]

Good picks David - and yes, all SMWS favourites as well in single cask form!

Doesn't Signatory also bottle Dailuaine?

[@TheScotchMaltWhiskySocietyUK]

Correct Dileep, Dailuaine available through Flora & Fauna bottlings and from other independent bottlers...but still somewhat underappreciated, we think!

Quite a few Indy bottlers bottle it including Duncan Taylor my local bottler.
