The popularity of single malt is a phenomenon of recent decades. In the traditional sense, Scotland whisky is a blended whisky that combines malt and grains.
This is what Westwood Fairmont believes truly tests a brewer's blending and bottling skills with Scotland whisky.
Westwood disdains associating with those who disregard the tradition of Scotland whisky for market demands.
Based on this philosophy, when most of the distilleries in Scotland chose to launch single malt whisky to meet market needs and maintain operations, Brunschwig Distillery chose to honor and persist with tradition.
As a result, not a single cask was sold for three years.
If the whiskey market hadn't been pressured by vodka.
Westwood's perseverance would also be beyond doubt.
After all, each to their own taste.
But the wheels of time never give people the option of "if."
The trend of single malt whisky did not vanish as quickly as Westwood anticipated.
