    I'm new to whisky tasting:

    Other than Glenfarclas and Kilchoman, are there other privately owned whisky distilleries?

    Thank you.

    That is really outstanding. I guess we also have to do a good representation of the ownership.

    Maximilien, "Independent" and "Small" (meaning owner doesn't own multiple distilleries) is featured as the same colour - see the small print on the right on the table.

    this tablete is complete mess

    No, the key to understanding is (meaning owner doesn't own multiple distilleries).

    If more than one distillery are owned by the same owner/company, this group of distilleries has their own color.
    All "single distilleries" (their owner owns only one distillery) are left white, no matter, if the owner is one person or a family or a company or how big the distillery or the comapany is. The white distilleries are just not owned by the same owner as any other scotch distillery, they do not belong to a group of distilleries, not more, not less.
