According to the formal classification of the Scotch Whisky Association, the whisky-producing islands, except Islay, belong to the Highlands region. But for convenience, these islands fall under the informal whisky region The Islands. These are the Orkney Islands, Skye, Arran, Mull and Isle of Jura. The whiskies of these islands have nothing in common, by the way. Except that they come from an island.
Bottler and blender Douglas Laing always come up with surprising bottlings. Take this Rock Island blended malt whisky. It is a blend of malts from the Orkneys and the Arran, Islay and Jura islands that was finished in tequila casks and bottled at 48%.
This is an old-fashioned sherried Highland Park single malt whisky that you won't find nowadays! This bottling of a 16-year-old Orkney malt, intended for the Dutch market, dates from 2006. It is bottled at a cask strength of 58.7%. (350ml bottle)
This is a bottling in The Signature Series from Arran. The distillery releases affordable special bottlings in this series, like this 2nd edition: the 11-year-old single malt whisky is heavily peated through maturation in 'peated' quarter casks! (50%)
In 2011, the Isle of Arran Distillery released this special bottling, 'Sleeping Warrior', in 6000 bottles. The single malt whisky matured for more than 10 years in sherry, bourbon and red wine casks and was bottled at 54.9%. Youthful and complex.
The Whiskybase shop is the only sales point in the Netherlands for Maltbarn bottlings, and we are quite proud of that. We are pleased to have this 17-year-old, bourbon-matured, 52.7% strong Orkney Malt (say, Highland Park), a single malt, on the shelf.
The label explains how to pronounce the name of this single malt whisky and that the name means Safe Haven. Ledaig is the peated variety from the Tobermory Distillery on Mull. This is a bottling from 2006, clearly different from the Ledaig of today. (42%)
Ledaig single malt whisky, the peated malt of the Tobermory Distillery, has a unique character. For those who like that character, this anniversary bottling from Whisky-Doris indeed is interesting: it aged for 13 years in a sherry cask and is 53.1% strong
Cnoc na Moine, the Heath Hill, is the title of Chapter 3 in the Legacy Series of the Torabhaig Distillery on the Isle of Skye, subtitled Smoke & Brine. A peated single malt whisky, yes! It matured in cask types such as bourbon, PX and oloroso. (46%)
Under the brand The Hearach, the young, artisanal The Isle of Harris Distillery on the Scottish island of the same name distils single malt whisky. This is Batch 10, their second bottling in 2024. The whisky aged in various bourbon and sherry casks. (46%)
A finish in sherry casks is very normal for whisky, but a finish in fino sherry casks is not very common. This 8-year-old Arran single malt whisky has matured in fino casks for the last nine months. It was bottled in 2007 in limited edition. (50%)
We don't have enough space to explain here why the name Whitlaw hides the single malt whisky of Highland Park, but that's what it is: 10 years old and matured in first and second-fill Oloroso casks, bottled at 46 %, for a reasonable price.
160 people live on the Scottish island of Raasay, but the distillery there won the title of Scottish Whisky Distillery of the Year 2022. This bottling is to celebrate that. The 5-year-old single malt matured in Four Roses and virgin oak casks. (50.7%)
The young Torabhaig distillery from the Isle of Skye released the second Allt Gleann batch of their peated, traditionally distilled single malt. Considering its age, this bourbon-matured malt is already quite complex. It is bottled at a hefty 61.1%.
This Arran bottling is certainly not a standard bottling! The 17-year-old single malt whisky matured in different types of casks: first and second-fill sherry casks and first-fill bourbon casks. It was bottled in a limited edition at 46% ABV.
We're not telling anything new by revealing that the name Orkney Islands hides the single malt whisky from Highland Park. And then you know that this will be a desirable bottling: the HP malt matured in a bourbon cask for twenty long years. (54.7%)
This is an extra striking edition in the already special Boutique Barrels bottling series of the Jura distillery: while Jura's single malt whisky is unpeated as standard, the bourbon-aged whisky in this bottling is peated (for the insider: 30ppm)! (55%)
An new edition edition by the Arran distillery of their peated single malt whisky Machrie Moor. This whisky, which is bottled at 46%, is not too heavily peated and therefore remains a pleasantly drinkable dram, with the Arran profile clearly recognizable.
In their La Nouvelle Vague series, bottler Chorlton Whisky also released this single malt whisky distilled on the Orkneys. We can assume that this is a Highland Park, and then one of 19 years old, aged in a bourbon cask and bottled at 54.3% cask strength.
Ledaig single malt whisky is the peated version of the whisky distilled by the Tobermory Distillery. Ledaig is known for its earthy, farm-like tones. Those notes are also reflected in this bottling, which is extra complex due to 18 years of maturation.
With the WhiskySponge bottlings, we have a lot of interesting offers again! Like this Orkney Sponge, for example: a 23-year-old Highland Park single malt whisky. The malt matured in a refill hogshead, a bourbon cask. Bottled at cask strength (57%).
It will no longer be a secret that the name Orkney hides a Highland Park single malt whisky. This Chapter 7 bottling of the famous Island whisky is 8 years old. During that period it matured in a red wine cask. Bottled at a cask strength of 52.8%.
Orkney is not a whisky brand. If a bottler releases an edition with 'Orkney' in the name, it will be Highland Park single malt whisky from the distillery of the same name in the Orkneys. So this is a 16-year-old, bourbon cask-matured HP whisky. (54%)
Chapter 7 is the bottling company of a Swiss who moved to Scotland. Always looking for special whiskies. And this is one of them: it's a 28 year old single malt whisky from the Tobermory Distillery on the Isle of Mull. Matured in a bourbon cask. (52% ABV)
Specially for sale at airports, this Dark Storm is from the Talisker distillery on the Scottish island of Skye. A standard bottling in a liter bottle. For a long time Talisker was the only distillery on the island, recently there is a second one. Hence.
