I think it disfavors new distilleries.

  You mean like Benromach and BenRiach? It's maybe a little tricky to see the entrepreneurial activity in Scotch whiskey at a distance, because there are so many silent distillery sites throughout the country. People gut and rehab mothballed distilleries rather than build new ones. But the Benromach distillery, for instance, is entirely new on the inside; and it was started by a Scotch retailer.

    Don't forget Kilchoman! They built it from scratch!
