The Speyside includes the catchment area of the River Spey with its tributaries. It is not the largest whisky region in terms of area, but with its 50 or so active distilleries, Speyside produces around 50% of all Scotch whisky. For that reason, the Speyside is formally regarded as a separate whiskyregio, although it is in the Highlands. A general characteristic of Speyside whisky could be: not smoky, fruity, flowers.
For a great price for a whisky of this age and quality, here is a single malt whisky from a (the?) Speyside distillery. It matured in a bourbon cask from which it emerged as a fruity, rich and oily 'old skool' dram. (Hogshead Imports, 15y, 56.8%)

In the bourbon cask from which this WhiskySponge bottling comes, 2 Aberlour single malts of different vintages were mixed: one from 1989 and one from 1991, multi-vintage! The youngest counts, so this Aberlour, bottled in 2024, is 33 years old. (49.7%)
The A'bunadh series from the Aberlour Distillery is a classic when it comes to sherried single malt whisky with its distinctive reddish-brown colour. But this is an A'bunadh Alba (Latin 'alba' = white). No sherry at all, but aged in bourbon casks! 60.1%
A true classic in the world of sherried single malt whisky, the Aberlour A'bunadh. Considering that we now have seen eighty A'bunadh batches already, you can call this batch #14, bottled at the beginning of this century, a classic classic! (59.5%)

The modern Allt-á-Bhainne Distillery produces malt whisky for blends such as Chivas Regal. Almost all single malt bottlings of their whisky are released by third parties. An excellent example of this is this 26-year-old, bourbon-matured edition. (50.1%)
Signatory Vintage previously released a similar bottling: a 20-year-old Alt-à-Bhainne single malt whisky that matured for 6 months in a 'fresh' sherry cask. That edition had a good score. This new edition was finished on sherry for even 8 months. (52.4%)
This anCnoc is part of the core assortment of the Knockdhu distillery. Bottled at 40% and for a reasonable price, this Highlander offers an aroma profile of malt, honey and wild flowers, with notes of beeswax, nutmeg and herbs.
Bottled in 2021, this 18-year-old anCnoc, in the core range of the Knockdhu Distillery. It matured on bourbon and sherry casks, and was bottled at 46%. The sherry influence is clearly noticeable in the notes of dark fruit and chocolate. A solid dram!

This Auchroisk is a Diageo Special Release from 2010 with a classic label. It is a Special Release indeed, because 20-year-old cask strength bottlings of the Speyside single malt whisky are not very common. Complex, sweet and very aromatic. (58.1%)
You will rarely come across a bottling of the Auchroisk Distillery itself. For this Speyside single malt whisky we have to wait for bottlings like this one by Brachadair. The Auchroisk matured for 8 years on an Oloroso sherry cask and was bottled at 59.7%
This Auchroisk single malt whisky matured for 10 years in a re-charred bourbon cask before bottler Van Wees bottled it at 46% in 2023. Released in the The Ultimate series for a very favorable price, as we have come to expect from this bottler.
For the finishing of whisky, you have to look at Murray McDavid. Also the aging of this Auchroisk single malt whisky has been carefully considered: the malt is finished in Port, Marsala and Four-Grain casks, which gave it the label Tropical & Sweet. 44.5%
This is one of the 7 first bottlings of Dutch bottler Roger's Whisky Company. An Aultmore single malt whisky that matured for 12 years in a bourbon cask. In addition to the fancyful label, the robust cask strength of this 63.5% bottling is also striking.
Most bottlings of Aultmore single malt whisky come from independent bottlers. That also applies to this release. Van Wees bottled this 11-year-old, bourbon-cask-aged Speysider in the The Ultimate series at 46%. For a nice price.
In a forgotten corner of Scotland is the warehouse with whisky casks where the Aultmore single malt whisky for this Cree bottling has been maturing. The Speyside malt rested there for 13 years in an ex-bourbon cask, a hogshead. (52.0% cask strength)
