Lowland Whisky
Lowland whiskies are often referred to as the most delicate and approachable of Scotch styles. Historically known for their triple distillation (though less common today), these whiskies lean toward light, floral, and grassy notes, with hints of citrus, toffee, and soft spice.
The gentle terrain and milder climate of southern Scotland produce a lighter spirit. With fewer extremes in temperature, maturation is slower and subtler, preserving elegant, fragrant qualities.
Lowland malts are ideal for newcomers to Scotch and for those who appreciate refined and understated drams. They also play a key role in blended Scotch due to their clean, crisp base character.
