 Speyside is not officially a whisky region but
it is generally accepted as a subdivision of the Highlands Region. Over
half of all Scotland's distilleries are
located in Speyside. Speyside malts are
typically the sweetest of all Scotch
Whisky Malts and many of the most
popular single malts are produced in
Speyside.
The huge selection of
Speyside malts offer a variety of
strengths and can generally be broken
down into two categories, the heavy,
rich sherry
flavoured malts and the more complex
light floral flavoured malts. Speyside
malts
are essentially sweet whiskies, although
some can have a little peaty character with
just a slight whiff of smoke.
The
list of malts produced in this region of
Scotland is pretty overwhelming, but
some of the better known names include
Glenfiddich, The Macallan, Balvenie,
Glenlivet, Glenfarclas, Glen Moray and
Aberlour.
