Highland

Highland single malts are single malt Scotch whiskies produced in the Highland region of Scotland. This region includes the whiskies produced on the islands around the perimeter of Scotland (the Island single malts), except for Islay The area also includes certain lowland areas in the North-East of the country such as Banffshire and Aberdeenshire. 

The Highland whisky flavour is different from the other regions by having more silky floral notes, with strong peaty flavours complementing the dry oak and fruit cake finish, while their island counterparts have a common citrus and smoke aroma with brine, black pepper and honey competing for attention on the palate.
