标题: Whiskey in Taiwan [打印本页] 作者: choi 时间: 6-28-2016 13:27 标题: Whiskey in Taiwan Jake Emen, Why Taiwan Is Poised to Conquer the Whisky World; This small East Asian country is going toe to toe with Scotland and Japan. Eater.com, June 28, 2016. http://www.eater.com/drinks/2016 ... isky-scotch-kavalan
two consecutive paragraphs:
"According to the latest available statistics from the Scotch Whisky Association, Taiwan was the 15th largest global market by volume for Scotch, importing over 1.7 million 9-liter cases in 2015.
"That's impressive enough for a country with a population of 23.5 million, 53rd globally. Then consider that Taiwan ranks 4th if measured by value rather than volume [not per capita but as a whole], with Scotch exports to the country totaling over £182 million, placing Taiwan behind only the U.S., France, and Singapore. In other words, not only is Taiwan importing a great deal of Scotch, but its interests are heavily skewed towards the good stuff.
