GLOBAL MALT LEX‐ICON Check‐list v3.0

This check-list of the world’s malt distilleries is essentially a country-by- country summary of the Global Malt Lex-icon as published on the maltmadness.com web-site (www.maltmadness.com/lexicon.html). Each distillery has a little check-box to allow you to keep a quick-and-easy record of the distilleries whose malt whisky you have tasted. Distillery names in red are distilleries whose malt whisky has been bottled as a single. When a name is given in green that means that the malt has not matured long enough yet to be bottled. Blue distillery names signify distilleries that distill malt whisky for blending purposes only (at the moment; who knows what the future will bring!). When a distillery is not operating anymore, its name is given in italics (if a distillery itself is still operating, but distilling of malt whisky has been discontinued, the distillery name is given in bold italics). In parentheses behind each region and country name are the numbers of distilleries in the various categories. What we have not included are malt whisky distilleries ‘in the planning stage’. There are quite a few of these plans worldwide but, rest assured, as soon as the first drop comes off their stills, they will get their rightful place in the GML!

At the moment, malt whisky is distilled in 176 distilleries, spread over 24 countries, and on all continents except Antarctica. The produce of an additional 45 closed distilleries (and 1 country) is still around. The world of malt whisky is constantly changing and we will do our best to keep this list and the Global Malt Lex-icon on the maltmadness.com web-site as accurate and up to date as we possibly can. But we do need your help in this! So if you spot an omission or a mistake or you know of any new developments which are not yet included in the GML, whether it is a malt distillery starting up, bottling its whisky for the first time, or closing, please let us know via [email protected]
