How to choose
If you want a smoky, peated dram, look at the Swedish Mackmyra "Ultra Rök" or the Danish-distilled "Peat & Heather". For sweeter, cask-finished styles, the Irish Lone Hawthorn range leans on port, sauternes and bourbon barrels. For a classic Scotch, the Mac Spey Speyside blended malt was put together by Stewart Laing from well-known distilleries. vomFASS also carries an unusually deep run of Welsh single malts from Penderyn (Tri Casgen, Pen y Fan, Tân y Ddraig), which are hard to find elsewhere.
One honest note: most of these are no-age-statement whiskies, which is normal for independent and craft bottlings and is not a mark of lower quality. A few do state an age, such as the Amrita Mumbay (6 years), the Black Forest "Triple Wood" (8 years) and the Mac Spey Speyside (10 years). Browse the full selection in Whisky.
