Originally, Scotch whisky was a malt whisky. It is big, soupy, strong and smoky from the peat fueled fires used to dry the malt. Styles previously varied from village to village and today we have selected a meandering tour of the highways and byways of Scotland’s best malt whisky for your enjoyment.
THE HIGHLANDS
These single malts are “Smooth & Floral” from the most scenic and largest whisky producing regions in Scotland.

The nose reveals a rich tapestry of toffee, while the palate is elegantly layered with profound oak notes. This tasting experience is a testament to Balvenie's heritage and dedication.
