Stretching from Orkney to the Isle of Arran, Aberdeenshire to the Outer Hebrides, the Highland region is the biggest geographical whisky area in Scotland.
As a result, its whiskies are not easy to categorise. Broadly speaking, they are robust, full-bodied single malts that also embrace individual characteristics depending on the distillery and location. Some are peaty or smoky, and some are powerful, but others, such as those produced at Dalwhinnie, are surprisingly delicate.
