Diageo has released its collection of rare and old whiskies under Special Releases for the past two decades. While the whiskies and their rarity have changed over time, certain distilleries have received more attention than others. In this analysis, we will examine the popularity of different distilleries in the Special Releases collection based on the number of releases by the owner.
We will begin by looking at whiskies with only one release and then proceed to those with multiple releases. Please note that some whiskies have been grouped together under the same heading due to their similar characteristics.
