Ah, but they are not - writes a Scotsman - you Vikings lost them More to the point I would say *some* of the good whisky comes from Orkney (HP & Scapa) and the Hebrides (really only Talisker and some Jhonny come latelys)
Islay is only in the Hebrides on questionable maps, they stopped at Mull when I was a skuleboy, and Islay has many excellent distileries - if you care for peaty malt. Cambelltown, at the foot of the Kintyre peninsula, equally merits mention. And then there are all the East Coast distileries Glen Morangie, Glenlivett and all its chums clustered around the Spey - quite different from the West Coast malts.

Although much of the good whisky come from areas that really should be Norwegian (Orkney, the Hebrides). -- Hilsen Harald
