The Speyside region is situated in the valley that runs along the River Spey, the second longest river in Scotland. With almost 60% of distilleries across Scotland located in this region, it is the focus of single malt production in Scotland today. Generally speaking, whiskeys from this region tend to fall into two broad categories; Sweet and full-bodied whiskeys, with great influence from sherry casks or, in a more subtle and aromatic profile, with herbaceous and vanilla notes.
The nature of the flavors in this region comprises elegant notes of fresh fruit, vanilla and honey. The use of sherry casks in this region is more prominent than in other areas, as this type of cask brings, to Speyside whiskeys, complexity in the form of spicy and dried fruit notes.
The Highlands or 'Scottish Highlands' is the largest region of Scotland geographically speaking, with a landscape of rugged mountains covered with Heather, we find, in addition to the Speyside region, two more sub-areas, "The west Coast", the west coast of Scotland, where the distilleries receive maritime influences in their whiskeys and "Central Highlands", an area more sheltered from the maritime influence in which we usually find heather and honey as prominent notes.
Islay whiskeys are famous in the world for their powerful character that leaves no one indifferent, in their whiskeys, they tend to stand out from the rest, notes of peat , charcoal bonfires, salt flats, seaweed and iodized. The island of Islay is located in the southwest of Scotland, and unlike the islands, where we normally find one distillery per island, Islay is home to eight distilleries that can be separated into two large groups.
The first group comprises the distilleries located on the southeast coast, Laphroaig, Lagavulin, Ardbeg and Caol Ila, which make powerful whiskeys in peat, with medicinal, iodized and saline notes. In the other group of distilleries we find more varied characters, from Bunnahabhain with light notes of peat, the softest of Islay, Bruichladdich that produces whiskeys without peat, disturbed and octomore, the whiskey with the highest concentration of peat in the world; Bowmore, with a balanced character in peat notes and Kilchoman, the youngest distillery on the Island.
Campbeltown is a peninsula in southern Scotland, once known as the whiskey capital, with more than 30 distilleries, now there are only three remaining distilleries and one, Springbank, which stands out above the rest with the production of three different types of malt whiskey, Springbank, with a medium peat level and two and a half times distilled; With powerful peat and double distillation Longrow and Hazelburn, a whiskey without peat and triple distillation.
The nature of the flavors in this region comprises elegant notes of fresh fruit, vanilla and honey. The use of sherry casks in this region is more prominent than in other areas, as this type of cask brings, to Speyside whiskeys, complexity in the form of spicy and dried fruit notes.
The Islands region, officially part of the Highlands, comprises all the distilleries that are on an island excluding the island of Islay . Very few of the 800 islands scattered along the coast of Scotland are inhabited and far fewer have a distillery. Currently only six of those 800 islands have a distillery, Arran, Mull, Jura, Skye, Lewis and Orkney. The whiskeys made in these islands include very varied styles, from light and citrus to powerful with notes of peat and pepper, but generalizing, we will find a marked maritime influence accompanied by smoked and peat.
On Isle of Skye we find the Talisker distillery, which makes whiskeys with medium peat notes, the water used for the distillate production comes from Cnoc nan Speireag, which flows over peat, adding complex notes to the whiskey.
The Jura Distillery is located on the Isle of Jura and produces whiskeys with light notes of peat and smoke.
Isle of Mull is the second largest island in the Hebrides, after Skye and the only distillery we can find on the island is Tobermory, which makes slightly disturbed whiskeys, the barley is not malted with peat, but rather the waters that pass through the peat that contain a perceptible level of phenol and this is transferred to the whiskey, the result is medium-bodied whiskeys, fresh and fruity with light notes of peat.
Orkney Islands is a small archipelago of islands located north of Scotland, on the main island we find two distilleries; Highland Park that is characterized by malting its own barley and using a mixture of heather and peat to malte the cereal, resulting in a whiskey with subtle notes of peat, heather and honey. The other distillery we found in Orkney is Scapa, which, unlike Highland Park, does not use peat in the malting process, but uses water with a disturbed character that is transferred to the distillery with pipes to avoid excessive contact with the peat.
Isle of Arran, known as Scotland in miniature due to its diversity in landscapes, the distillery we find on this island is Arran , which makes fruity and creamy whiskeys with notes of toasted cereals.
In Isle of Lewis, we found the Abhainn Dearg distillery, recently created and that at the moment has only released a single three-year-old malt.
The Lowlands or Lowlands is the southernmost region of Scotland, the terrain of this region is mainly composed of extensive and rolling fields, perfect for growing grain to make whiskey. The landscape is the gentlest of all the Scottish regions and it seems that this carries over to their whiskeys, with lighter, fresher and softer colors and bodies, with floral and cereal notes. There are around five operating distilleries in this region, including Auchentoshan and Glenkinchie.
