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.
Distilling since 2013 in the far north of Scotland, Wolfburn reached a new milestone with the release of their first batch of 10-year-old whisky. This whisky fully matured in Oloroso sherry casks and is bottled at 46%. Non-chill-filtered and natural color
Bottler Van Wees always tries to release their bottlings in an affordable price range. But if you can bottle a 30-year-old Glenturret single malt whisky, well, then you will end up in a somewhat higher price segment. Matured on bourbon and at 46.5%.
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%)
A Glenmorangie single malt whisky in the experimental Private Edition series, this Milsean. Matured in bourbon barrels, finished in re-roasted wine casks! That finish is reflected in perfume-like notes and the sweetness of burnt wood. Special!
In 1985, Highland distillery Glenury Royal closed permanently. Before and after, relatively few bottlings of their single malt whisky were released, but they almost always scored very high. This also applies to this 29-year-old Rare Malts edition. (57%)
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%.
More than seven years ago Gordon & MacPhail bottled this Ardmore single malt whisky in their Reserve series. It matured for 17 years in a refill ex-bourbon cask. This cask clearly let the distillery character unharmed (fruity, mild peat smoke). (46%)
To celebrate the Whiskybase Gathering 2022, Whiskybase released this bottling of a Highland single malt whisky. The label doesn't say anything about it, but rumour has it that it's a Clynelish. In any case, the malt is 11 years old and bottled at 58.1%.
This 12-year-old Glendronach single malt whisky was released 10 years ago. Due to the finishing in Sauternes wine casks, this single malt whisky has a somewhat different, more extensive taste palette than the well-known PX or Oloroso matured editions. 46%
'Finealta' is Gaelic for 'elegant', and this 2010 bottling from Glenmorangie certainly is! The single malt whisky matured in Oloroso sherry casks and American oak casks. Creamy and full in the mouth with fruity, wood, vanilla and sherry notes. (46%)
Glenmorangie was one of the first distilleries to experiment with non-standard cask ageing. In 2017, they released this Spìos bottling as a Private Edition, a single malt whisky that had matured in casks that previously contained rye whisky. (46%)
James Eadie bottled 285 bottles of this Royal Brackla single malt whisky at a sturdy cask strength of 58.9%. The whisky from the Highland distillery, which is more than two centuries old, matured for 10 years in a scraped and then re-charred bourbon cask.
The Morven is the peated standard bottling of the young Wolfburn distillery. Smoke is clearly but not intrusive present, in the palette. There are also notes of caramel, malt, hay and nuts and, ultimately, some fruit. Worth trying!
The Belgian whisky friends club Double-V releases several times a year bottlings of whiskies that have matured in their private cellar. This is one of them: a 12-year-old Royal Brackla single malt whisky at 54.5% cask strength. For a great price!
Next to Highland distillery Glen Ord there is a malting house for regional barley. This supplies the malt from which the Glen Ord single malt whisky is distilled. In 1997, a 23-year-old bottling of that whisky appeared in the Rare Malts Selection. (59.8%)
Fettercairn works with traditional distillation equipment but uses an unorthodox technique to cool the stills, resulting in a 'lighter' spirit. The single malt whisky in this Chapter 7-bottling matured for 11 years in a bourbon cask. (51.6% cask strength)
Young and powerful, that's this Teaninich single malt whisky in two words. The House of MacDuff bottled this malt at cask strength (62.3%) after 9 years of aging. Apart from independent bottlings like this, you won't find Teaninich whisky in the store.
There are whisky enthusiasts who still regret the closure of the Lochside Distillery in 1992. The single malt whisky from the Highland distillery was highly appreciated! We hope to provide some comfort with this 19-year-old Lochside bottling from 2011.
With this Cù Bòcan, Tomatin releases a peated variant of its single malt whisky. This 5th edition matured on Colombian oak, which gives this whisky some special notes. The bottle itself expresses the smoky, fiery character of Cù Bòcan. (46%)
This Tomatin Single Highland Malt was bottled by the distillery in 2005 for the Italian market. The single malt whisky is 10 years old and filled at 40% ABV. A simple dram with a vintage in the last century. Always interesting.
In Cadenhead's bottling series Enigma, the distillery remains unnamed. This release, by the way, is the single malt from a Highland distillery known for its tall stills. In any case, at 40 years old, this dram is certainly special! (44.5% cask strength)
The second Invergordon bottling from bottler Brachadair (‘Belgian roots…but Gaelic at heart’). This Invergordon single grain whisky is 33 years old. It matured all this time in a bourbon cask, a barrel. The grain was bottled in 193 bottles at 55.6%.
