BBC: Scottish airports firm looks to Norway's winter tactics
It operates and manages 11 airports at Barra, Benbecula, Campbeltown, Dundee, Islay, Inverness, Kirkwall, Stornoway, Sumburgh, Tiree and Wick.
Kirkwall reported a rise of 0.9%, while Islay and Barra recorded even sharper increases, up by 10.5% and 9.2% respectively.
Some people prefer a dry and peaty Islay, others the sweetness of a Speyside or the depth of a Campbeltown.
The menu is divided into several categories, including rare and single malt, Lowlands, Highlands, Speyside, Isle of Islay, Cambelton, Island, Irish, American and Canadian.
Hammerfest is also understood to have plans to create a manufacturing facility in Scotland which would build the turbines for the Islay project.
It said sales of its Islay Single Malt increased by 12% with the Japanese malts, Yamazaki and Hakushu, selling well in the UK and Europe.
Other areas badly affected by power cuts are around Campbeltown and on the islands of Islay, Jura and parts of Bute, according to Argyll and Bute Council.
In two years' time Hammerfest is hoping to install 10 tidal turbines in the Sound of Islay, which should produce enough electricity to power the whole of the Island.
Although there are examples of similar stand-alone operations in Norway and the UK, the Sound of Islay turbines would be the first large group of its kind anywhere in the world.
The results were more of a distant cousin to the Manhattan, with his version of a Trilby having a distinct smoky flavour from Islay scotch and the Tipperary being slightly more herbal, thanks to chartreuse.
If the next stage of testing goes according to plan, Mortimer says that work will soon begin on a fleet of the turbines -- manufactured by Andritz Hydro Hammerfest -- and will be installed at another site in the Sound of Islay off the west coast of Scotland.
The 10 megawatts of power that will be generated by the Sound of Islay turbine farm pales into insignificance when compared to the output of a large nuclear or coal power station, which according to American hydro energy non-profit the Ocean Energy Council, can produce up to 100 times as much electricity.
