One of the 5 official Scottish whisky regions. Until the 19th century, mainly illegal whisky distilleries were located in this large area. Now there are about 30 distilleries that often have their own character. In the Highlands lies the Speyside which with its 50 distilleries is officially a region of its own. The Highlands also officially include a number of islands that informally form the Islands region.
Of course it's not about the bottle, but the bottle of this Dalmore 12 single malt whisky really is impressive! The whisky itself is a Dalmore core bottling and with its nice balance and complexity a good example of what Dalmore has to offer. (40%)
'The King's own whisky', the label reads. And that king is William IV who gave the Brackla Distillery in the Highlands the right to bear the title Royal. This 12-year-old Royal Brackla single malt whisky is finished in oloroso sherry casks. At 46% ABV.
It is one of two single malt Scotch whiskies to carry the designation 'royal'. This is a 10-year-old Royal Brackla bottling from James Eadie, matured in bourbon casks. This malt offers notes like red apple, toffee, caramel, shortbread and cinnamon. (46%)
In 2024, Wolfburn Distillery acquired a small number of exquisite Limousin oak Cognac casks. In these casks, they finished their single malt whisky for six months, which had previously matured in first-fill bourbon casks. A wealth of flavours! (8y, 46%)
Loch Lomond's Inchmurrin single malt whisky is unique because it's distilled using the Loch Lomond straight-neck pot stills. This 12-year-old Intense Orchard Fruit is even more unique in that it's matured in 3 different types of American oak casks. (46%)
The title Traditional of this Ben Nevis bottling refers to the times when single malt whisky was only distilled from peated barley malt. Hence, the Peated Malt on the label. You could, therefore, call this smoky and peaty whisky a classic Ben Nevis. (46%)
A new Ardnamurchan Core Batch, a standard whisky from the young distillery. A feature of the Ardnamurchan single malt bottlings is that they are 50:50 peated/unpeated, and matured for 65% in bourbon and 35% in sherry casks. (6 years old, 46.8%)
Fresh fruit, grassy, malty, fresh, sparkling even. Those are just some of the keywords that come up when tasting this 10-year-old Highlander. A nice standard bottling from the Glencadam distillery, dating from 1825. At 46%.
In 2019, Whiskybase bottler Archives released this 9-year-old Ardmore single malt. What makes this edition extra special is the maturation in a cask that previously held Laphroaig whisky. The light peat of Ardmore now gets an extra Islay kick! (53.4%)
In 2011, Whiskybase.com launched the bottling brand Archives. To date, Archives has released over 230 bottlings that have scored high on average, with 87.5 points. In 2016, this 43-year-old Invergordon single grain whisky came out. (49.9%, 88.7 points)
In 2012, the first batch of the Cask Strength series from Highland distillery Glendronach was released. It is known for its sherried single malt whisky, and this bottling certainly contributed to that: it matured in Oloroso and PX casks. Bottled at 54.8%.
This Archives bottling was released in their perhaps smallest and most unknown series: Squids from Belgium. This is a remarkably young Blair Athol bottling. The Highland malt matured for 4 years in a special 'first fill' Koval bourbon cask. (62.3%)
This is not just any 8 year old Glendronach single malt whisky. You can tell by the bottle (a Dumpy Green Bottle, 75 cl, with a withered, discolored seal). This is a bottling from perhaps the 1970s, maybe earlier. This is a real 'old skool' dram! (43%)
Under the famous bottler's brand Silver Seal, this single malt from the Glenury Royal Distillery, which closed in 1985, was released in 2001. The Highlander matured for 20 years in a sherry cask and was bottled at 56.3% ABV. A real collector's item!
Wanneer deze Aberfeldy single malt-whisky op de markt is gekomen weten we niet precies, maar dat het een bijzondere Aberfeldy is, dat staat wel vast! De Highlander rijpte 18 jaar, waarvan de laatste periode op Italiaanse Sangiovese rode-wijnvaten. (46%)
The Old Pulteney 15 is a core bottling of this Highland distillery. And rightly so: it is a beautiful, characterful, yet mild single malt whisky that double-matured on American and Spanish oak. Nose, taste and finish follow each other harmoniously. (46%)
In 2003 Edradour released under the name Ballechin their first whisky distilled from peated barley malt. A smoky single malt whisky. For the series The Ultimate Van Wees bottled this 10-year-old Ballechin. It matured in a large sherry cask. Bottled at 46%
Archives is the brand under which Whiskybase has been releasing bottlings since 2011. This is done in various series. This Strathclyde single grain was released in 2023 in the series Fishes of Samoa, intended for online sales. (30y, bourbon cask, 48.0%)
One of the core bottlings of Highland single malt whisky Balblair, and at the age of 12 also the youngest of the lot. Pretty fruity, not very complex and pleasant to drink. A whisky not to be difficult about, a great dram for an evening with friends.
And yet another strongly sherried Edradour single malt whisky from bottler Van Wees. And again in their Cask Strength series. This malt from the Southern Highlands aged for 10 years in an active sherry cask and is bottled at 59.3%.
The Whisky Agency released this Glengoyne single malt in 2011 in their series The Perfect Dram. And rightly so! With its 38 years of maturation in a fine ex-bourbon cask, this is a subtle, deliciously drinkable dram with a complex flavour palette. (46.3%)
This is a single grain whisky from the versatile Loch Lomond distillery. The grain matured for 28 years in two ex-bourbon casks filled with the same spirit on the same day, before Uncharted Whisky bottled it in April 2025 at 48% as Caledonian Dreaming.
A real old-school sherried whisky, this at cask strength bottled Glen Garioch. Striking is the 'grown-up' balance between the influence of the sherry casks on which this malt matured and the spirit. This makes the whisky taste older than 15 years.
Established in 2013, the artisanal Strathearn Distillery distils its single malt whisky from an old barley variety that yields less alcohol but more flavour. This Batch No.02 matured in bourbon, sherry and virgin oak casks. You have to taste it! (50%)
