Highlands
| The largest of the regions and the one that has the greatest diversity of style. |
| Highland malts are tricky ones to characterise, covering a wide area from Wick in the North East of Scotland, the home of Old Pulteney, down to Glengoyne, outside Glasgow. Some would even include Campbeltown as a Highland malt now, while others will claim the town's independence. These malts range from medium to light bodied with heather and some peatiness in Northern Highland whiskies and a sweeter floral flavour in the whiskies further South. |
