A few footnotes;

(1) - Cooley distillery in Ireland produces an extensive range of brands.
Connemara, Tyrconnell, Locke's, Kilbeggan, Millars and Inishowen are just a few of them.
(2) - Theoretically, Midleton distillery in Ireland distills 'for blending only' (FBO).
However, somebody got hold of some casks and bottled those under the name 'Erin Go Bragh'.
Tasting notes and a picture can be found in Lex's 'Irish' E-pistle.
(3) - The Roggenhof distillery in Austria uses both rye and barley for two different whiskies.
These whiskies are available under the names 'Roggenmalzwhisky' and 'Gerstenmalzwhisky'.
(4) - Distillerie des Menhirs in France uses a mixture of malted and unmalted buckwheat for their 'Eddu' whisky.
We have been informed that a 'proper' malt whisky should be released in the future. Watch this page for news...
(5) - The German 'Blaue Maus' distillery has released a wide range of bottlings under sometimes hilarious names.
Some examples: Blaue Maus (blue mouse), Gruner Hund (green dog) Schwarzer Pirat, Spinnaker and Krottentaler.
(6) - Whiskyschip isn't a 'distillery' in the sense that it's a seperate building you can visit. It's a 'still set'.
That still set is rented out to others and used once a year at the 'Whiskyshiff' festival in Zurich.
(7) - The only African malt distillery we know of is the James Sedgwick Distillery in South Africa.
According to their website the company was established 1886 in Wellington, in the Cape Winelands.
(8) - The Indian distilleries Kasauli and Mohan Nagar use both pot stills (P) and column stills (Co).
Kasauli uses its column still predominently for malt while Mohan Nagar seems to mostly use the pot still.
(9) - The Tasmania Distillery in, you guessed it, Tasmania, produces the Sullivan's Cove and Old Hobart brands.
Tasmania Distillery is easily confused with the defunct 'Small Concern' (www.tasmanianwhisky.com.au) distillery.
(10) - The Kittling Ridge distillery produces 'Forty Creek' Canadian whiskies containing the malt whisky.
(11) - Brands from the Okanagan distillery in Canada are Glen Ogopogo (seriously) and perhaps (?) Long Wood.
(12) - The Anchor distillery (California, USA) uses rye instead of barley.

And that's it for now.
Do you know of a malt whisky distillery we haven't covered? Or have you spotted an error.
Please don't hesitate and let us know - our goal is to make the Lex-icon as comprehensive as possible.
