Innovation


One of the biggest trends in the industry is innovation, which is occurring in a number of different ways. One example is distillers experimenting with new casks and maturation techniques. Alongside this, there has been the introduction of new and innovative bottling and packaging concepts too.


Specialty Styles


Secondly, whisky enthusiasts are becoming increasingly interested in specialty styles of Scotch Whisky such as single malt and blended malt. These styles are more complex and diverse compared with traditional blended whisky, and they’re becoming more popular with each year.


Growing Global Demand


Furthermore, global demand for Scotch Whisky continues to grow. Growth is particularly strong in India, the United States, France, and Brazil. A major part of this growth is coming from younger consumers, who are attracted to the rich history and heritage behind Scotch Whisky.


Sustainability 


In addition to this, the Scotch whisky industry is increasingly focused on sustainability, with distillers making efforts to reduce their individual environmental impact. This includes increased use of renewable energy, as well as better waste management and water conservation measures being put into place.


Premium Scotch Whiskies


Lastly, premium Scotch Whiskies are becoming more popular too. More and more consumers are willing to pay more for these whiskies, as they’re a sign of quality and status. As a consequence, distillers are responding to this trend by introducing new products that are more expensive and of a higher quality.
