Why are some good whiskies less well known?
Fame often has more to do with marketing budget than quality - many smaller or independent distilleries prefer to invest their money in whisky quality rather than large advertising campaigns.
Is it worth looking beyond Scotland?
Definitely - distilleries like Kavalan from Taiwan or Starward from Australia show that high-quality whisky no longer comes from Scotland alone, and often matures faster thanks to their warmer local climates.
