Only one score per distillery is provided to it is assumed that this is a generalisation of the whisky that each distillery offers. Data sourced from https://www.mathstat.strath.ac.uk/outreach/nessie/nessie_whisky.html , corrected (a few errors in original data such as lat/lon mislabled) and then converted into shapefile and kml formats. GIS vector data. This dataset was first accessioned in the EDINA ShareGeo Open repository on 2014-01-08 and migrated to Edinburgh DataShare on 2017-02-22.
