Competition for the Islays - Smoky whiskies

The most famous of the smoky peaty single malt whiskies are from the Isle of Islay. But not only in other Scottish regions such as the Highlands, Lowlands or the Speyside whisky is given a special touch by the peat flavor, more and more international distilleries are competing with the Islays! The spectrum of single malts ranges from extremely smoky and peaty to slightly sweetish whisky.
