In geographic terms the Highland region of Scotland is the largest Scotch whisky producing region and offers the widest range of variations in style.
West Highland whisky tends to be less peaty than Islay whisky and some people say a common characteristic of Highland malts is that they have a sweet start and a dry finish.
North Highland single malts tend to be light bodied, spicy and sometimes salty.
Single malts from the Eastern, Southern and Central Highlands are often fruity, sweet, light bodied and with a dry finish.
A 10yo Balblair bottled by G&M in the 1970s. This is a wonderful example of old school, coastal highland malt whisky, a style that barely exists anymore. This is every bit as good as some other big name bottlings from this era that cost literally hundreds of pounds more. More Details
Distilled on 23rd March 1965 and matured in a Single American Oak Ex Sherry Butt for 40 years. Balblair 1965 is the oldest official vintage released to date with an outrun of only 300 bottles. A fruity, mentholated masterpiece. More Details
One of the best official Ben Nevis in recent years, this is a massive belter of a dram. A good example of that rare thing: a big fat west coast malt. Well worth trying. More Details
Here we have the second run of 25 year olds from Ben nevis with a yield of 638 bottles having spent almost 14 years in fresh Bourbon casks, then re-racked in a fresh Sherry butts. Another excellent aged Ben Nevis that shows a more graceful side to the distillery's normal muscular profile. More Details
Probably the biggest Blair Athol ever bottled. Like all the Manager's Dram bottlings this one is a huge beast of a whisky with a powerhouse sherry punch. Not too much distillery character left but wonderful if you're a sherry head. More Details
Like the old Manager's Dram bottling this is another sherry matured Blair Athol. However, unlike the MD the MC is actually much more approachable and displays some more natural distillery character qualities. Fine whisky. More Details
The old official presentation of Blair Athol from the 1980s. This hails from the days before the classic malts and the Flora & Fauna range. More Details
There are only 93 bottles of this 1981 Brora. The whisky itself is one of the best examples of early eighties Brora ever bottled. Thick and waxy with bags of petrols, minerals and oily, dense sherry qualities. There never was a spirit quite like the one made at this distillery. A beautiful and poignant dram. More Details
A super rare Clynelish this one. Bottled in 1995 as part of the very first outrun of Rare Malts releases back when they were little more than single cask bottlings. This is a rare and glorious slice of Clynelish from the distillery owners and one of the very first 1972s to be bottled. More Details
One of several spectacular early 1970s Clynelish bottled by Diageo for their legendary Rare Malts series. This one was distilled in 1972 and bottled from refill wood in 1997 at 61.3%. As you would expect from this distillery, vintage and series, this is a beast of a dram. More Details
Bottled in 1998, this was the follow up to the previous year's 1972. 1974 Clynelishs are pretty thin on the ground but this one reveals it to be quite similar in style to the 72s. Another excellent but very potent and muscular old Highlander. This one needs time and a bit of water but with patience you'll be rewarded with a stunning whisky. More Details
One of the rare cask strength series of Flora And Fauna bottlings. This Clynelish was one of the highlights of that series. One of those super oily, old style drams that recalls the old pre-Brora Clynelish of old. More Details
