BLENDED & SINGLE MALT SCOTCH WHISKY
Blended
Blended Scotch whisky amounts for approximately 90% of the whisky produced in the United Kingdom. Blended Scotch whiskies contain both malt whisky and grain whisky. They were initially created as an alternative to single malt whiskies, which some considered too harsh. Producers combine the various malts and grain whiskies to produce a consistent brand style.

The Highlands
Located south of Speyside and north of the Lowlands lies The Highlands region. The region includes most of the rest of Scotland, with the exception of the Island of Islay and Campbeltown, and thus its malts vary greatly in character. Generalizations about the Highland region are less valid, as its whiskies will range from dry to sweet and at times have a touch of smoke and peat.

Islay
Located in the Inner Hebrides, the small Island of Islay is often called ‘Whisky Island’ given its concentration of nine operating distilleries in just 620 square kilometers. The island produces very distinct malts, generally heavily peated and smoky in taste.

The Lowlands
The Lowlands region lies south of an imaginary line drawn from the Clyde estuary to the Tay estuary. It can claim only three working distilleries. Whiskies from the Lowlands tend to be soft and light in character. They often display very malty, grassy characteristics and subtle delicate aromas.

Speyside
Technically, Speyside lies inside the Highland region. It is home to approximately half of Scotland’s malt whisky distilleries. This small area of land located to the north west of Aberdeen produces mellow, sweet, and particularly fruity malt whiskies.

Island Single Malts
A general term for single malt scotch whiskies produced on the islands around the perimeter of the Scottish mainland. The exception is Islay, which is considered a separate whisky-producing region. They are considered to be part of the Highland region, they are extremely varied and have few similarities.
