Lowland single malt whisky Strana 1 z 1

Lowland single malt whisky comes from the south of Scotland – a region lying between the English border and the Highlands. This area is known for its softer, more delicate whiskies that differ from the bold, peated styles of the north.

The gentle elegance of the south

Lowland whiskies are light, fresh, and often floral or herbal in character. Instead of peat, coal is used during production, giving them a cleaner profile without smoky notes. They are also known for triple distillation, where the spirit passes through three stills – resulting in an exceptionally smooth and refined texture.

The flavour profile of Lowland whisky

Expect flavours of grain, honey, flowers, vanilla, and citrus. It’s an ideal style for those new to whisky or those who prefer a lighter, more elegant character. Some distilleries experiment with a subtle hint of peat to add depth without losing delicacy.
