Schotland is famous for its globally esteemed Scotch Whisky. The origin of Scottish whisky dates back to the 11th century, with the first recorded mention in 1494. Today, there are hundreds of distilleries in Scotland producing the "liquid gold." Some brands are considered among the best in the world.
For a whisky to officially bear the label Scotch, it must be produced in a Scottish distillery and matured in oak barrels in Scotland for at least three years. The ingredients are strictly limited to water, malt, peat, and yeast. The end product must be bottled with an alcohol content of at least 40% ABV.
There are three types of Scottish whisky: Single Malt, Single Grain, and Blended. Single Malts like The Dalmore or Glenfarclas Single Highland Malt are made from malted barley. Single Grains like Kilbeggan Single Grain or Bain's Cape Mountain Single Grain are usually derived from corn with a portion of malted barley. Blended Whiskys like Chivas Regal Blended Scotch Whisky or Johnnie Walker Blue Label result from a combination of Single Malt and Single Grain.
There are five recognized Scottish whisky regions: Lowland, Highland, Islay, Campbeltown, and Speyside. Due to the varied conditions in each region, the whiskies exhibit unique characteristics. Lowland Single Malts, traditionally triple distilled, are known for a malty, spicy taste and subtle citrusy aromas. Highland whiskies have a heavier, drier character with notes of nuts, honey, and heather. Islay Malts tend to be peaty and smoky with robust flavors. Campbeltown whisky is distinguished by a distinctly dry, smoky, and salty taste. Speyside whisky is renowned for its elegance and sophistication with subtle nutty and fruity notes.
