The saying goes, “All scotch is whisky. But not all whisky is scotch.” True. And not all scotch is great scotch. To make a scotch that’s really something special, it takes more than dedication to the craft. It takes art, to distill that ‘it factor’. That je ne sais quoi. We bring you a list of scotch brands that do just that.
