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.
This 15 year old Highlander is a great introduction to the world of single malts. Also known as the 'honey malt', this Dalwhinnie combines fruity sweetness with the rich aromas of a long maturation. At a nice price. At 43%.
A Glendronach with a twist, that's what you could call this 14-year-old single malt whisky. The fact that it matured in re-charred casks is not the most remarkable thing, but it is that it's finished in American new oak casks. And you can taste that! 46%

On the occasion of the 25th anniversary of Queen Elizabeth II in 1977, bottler Gordon & MacPhail released this 25 year old Macallan single malt whisky. A special bottle then, but now, 45 years later, extra special. And it scores high! (bottled at 40%)
A new look for this 12 year old Loch Lomond single malt whisky. It matured in 3 different types of bourbon cask (1st fill, refill and re-charred). That resulted in a dram with notes of peach, pear, sweet vanilla and a hint of peat smoke. 46%
Under the name Ballechin, the Highland distillery Edradour presents a peaty malt. This 10-year-old has a strong peat and smoke flavor and an extensive palette of cask influences due to maturation on both bourbon and sherry casks. A nice whisky at 46%.
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%)
Invergordon is one of the best-known and well-appreciated single grain whiskies. So pay attention to this bottling from Berry Bros & Rudd. This Invergordon matured for 34 years in a bourbon cask, a barrel. Of course,e it is bottled at cask strength: 59.6%

This single malt whisky from the southern Highland distillery Deanston is finished in new oak casks for up to a year and then bottled at a cask strength of 58.5%. A waxy mouthfeel with notes like butterscotch, honey, pudding, green apple and wood.
You can't go wrong with a bottle from Douglas Laing's Old Particular series, and that certainly applies to this 18-year-old, sherry-matured Blair Athol single malt whisky. Complex, with notes of dark fruit, plums, black wine gums and raisins. (48.4%)
Gordon & MacPhail is the only bottler allowed to place original distillery labels on its bottlings. This happens in the Licensed Bottling series, for example with this approximately 15-year-old Ardmore single malt bottling. The whisky matured in G&M casks
This 18 year old single malt whisky is one of the core bottlings of the Royal Brackla Distillery in the Highlands. The whisky is finished in Palo Cortado shery casks. That sherry influence is not overpowering, and in balance with the fruitiness of Brackla
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!

The Lochside Distillery closed in 1992 after only about 35 years in operation, but in that short time, their single malt whisky had built up a very good name. This bottling (17 years, 46%) from 2008 can now be called a collector's item, so, be quick!

Why Glendronach is known for their sherried whisky also becomes clear with this bottle, released in 2013 in Batch 3 of a series of Cask Strength bottlings. The single malt whisky matured in Oloroso and PX casks and is bottled at 54.9%.
Without much fanfare, Ben Nevis Distillery has redesigned its labels and revamped its range of standard bottlings. This Core Leis is an example of that: an 'entry level' NAS (8 to 10 years?) single malt whisky matured in 1st-fill bourbon casks. (46%)
