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.
Released of the 20th anniversary of Benromach. Distilled in the first year (1998) of the reopened Benromach distillery and now bottled 20 years later in 2018 to celebrate this milestone.
Distillery Benromach usually releases unpeated single malt whisky, but sometimes a smoky variant appears, such as this Peat Smoke from 2007. It matured for 7 years in fresh bourbon casks, resulting in a nice combination of fruity and smoky notes. (46%)
Benromach is not averse to experimenting. This is also the case with this edition in their Contrast series. The single malt whisky is distilled from barley malt with a high enzyme content, a malt normally used for grain whisky. (12y, bourbon aged, 46%)
This is a bottle from batch #3 of Benromach 2014 single malt whisky in the Cask Strength series. The malt aged for about 10 years in sherry and bourbon casks. A full-bodied dram with notes like stewed fruit, marmalade, a hint of smoke and aniseed. (60.6%)
The subtle smoke that characterizes Benromach single malt whisky and the influence of both the bourbon and sherry casks on which it matured provide a rich palette of notes. The maturation period of 21 years certainly plays a role in this. Bottled at 43%.
Fruit notes such as ripe apple, mandarin orange and raspberry, notes such as black pepper, cloves and, for example, beeswax, you'll find all this and more in this extraordinary Benromach bottling. The 40-year-old single malt whisky is bottled at 56.5%.
Whisky distillers and bottlers Phil and Simon Thompson also blend whisky. See this Teaspooned Private Stock. Although, blending... It's supposedly an 8-year-old, bourbon-matured Ballindalloch single malt with a teaspoon of other malt mixed in. (57.1%)
This 26-year-old Braes of Glenlivet (also called Braeval) was released in 2021 behind a whimsical label, as a bottling of the Taiwanese The Whisky Blues. The Speyside single malt whisky matured in a barrel and is bottled at 51.1% cask strength.
Cadenhead, Scotland's oldest independent bottler, presents a Burnside (a blend of The Balvenie single malt whisky and a teaspoon of Glenfiddich) that matured for a whopping 28 years in bourbon casks. Expect notes of tutti-frutti and toffee. (46% ABV)
The Bottlers, a very high-scoring bottler, hardly release any bottlings anymore (the last one in 2015, as far as we know), but in 2004, they released this 27-year-old single malt whisky from the Caperdonich Distillery that closed in 2002. (54.3%)
This is a great opportunity to taste the single malt whisky from the Caperdonich Distillery, which closed in 2002. This bottle is part of the 2008 Chairman's Stock bottling from Cadenhead. The Speysider matured for 27 years in a bourbon cask. (56.8%)
To the regret of many whisky lovers, the Caperdonich Distillery closed in 2002. Ten years later, this Director's Cut bottling from Douglas Laing was released: a 30 (!) year old, refill sherry cask-matured Caperdonich single malt. (50.9%, score: 90.1)
This is a standard bottling from Speyside distillery Cardhu. This single malt whisky has matured for 18 years in bourbon and sherry casks and is bottled at 40% ABV. That makes this a typical, fruity and round Speysider, a pleasantly drinkable dram.
You can find distillery bottlings of Cardhu single malt whisky in most liquor stores, but bottlings like this... This is a real collector's item: the Speysider was vatted in 1973. After 27 years of maturation, it was bottled at a cask strength of 60.2%.
A mild, fruity and 'modest' Speysider, this Cragganmore 12. No spectacle in your glass, but a balanced complexity. Fruit and heather, a hint of grains, honey, toffee and the spiciness of oak. A dram to give a chance!
Craigellachie is specialising in producing single malt whisky finished in exceptional casks. This 13-year-old Old Bas-Armagnac Cask is a prime example of this. The Speysider first matured in bourbon and sherry casks before being finished. (46%)
Rich in taste, light, creamy oak, grassy, plums, fruit, complex woody ... the reviews tumble over each other. There is a lot to taste in this 17-year-old Craigellachie single malt whisky that matured in casks of American oak. At 46%.
We've received new bottlings from Cadenhead's Original Collection, and this Craigellachie is one of them. This single malt whisky from the Speyside distillery, which has been in business for over 130 years, matured for 18 years in Oloroso casks. (46% ABV)
Specially released for the Dutch market, but of course available worldwide through us: a 13-year-old Craigellachie single malt whisky at cask strength (55.3%), matured in a bourbon cask. Taste tropical fruit, baked apple, mature oak, pepper and much more.
This is the 89th edition of Whisky Blues from bottler Whisky AGE. It's a 15-year-old Dailuaine single malt whisky, matured in a first-fill bourbon cask. The distillery, the first to feature those iconic 'pagodas' (dome fans), dates back to 1852. (56.1%)
Dailuaine has hardly ever released bottlings of their own product, but it is one of the larger distilleries in the Speyside. To get to know this single malt whisky better, this Chapter 7 bottling is very suitable. It aged for 11 years in a bourbon cask.
This Glen Elgin bottling was released in 2020 in the renowned Single Malts of Scotland series. The single malt whisky matured for 13 years in a bourbon cask and is bottled at a cask strength of 56.3%. A dram full of fruit and minerals, a true Speysider.
A true Speyside malt, this 12-year-old Glen Elgin bottled by casQueteers, with lots of fruity notes: apple, grapes, peach, lemon, banana, and more. In addition, notes such as cinnamon, sawdust, pencil and malt. The single malt whisky is bottled at 57.7%.
