THE ALIAS LIST
The Renamed Single Malt Whisky Identifier
aka "Raising the Dead"
The are lots of great single malts bottled under other labels
- many from long lost distilleries with only the most tenuous link to the named
distillery, if any at all! Some are tongue-in-cheek constructions created
because the distillery insisted (legally) that they not be identified (see
Leapfrog and Tactical). Since I've found I sometimes have a heck of a time remembering which is
which I've created
this compilation to help me keep these alternative names straight.
If there are several suggested
malts for any given category it's due to:
1. I've heard various explanations;
2. There have been different malts bottled under this
label; or
3. I don't have a clue and am grasping at straws.
Please email any corrections or additions (I know I'm missing
some) to
