The Single Malt Whisky Flavour Map

This post concerns everybody who likes whisky but also those who have no idea of whisky! On this map the greatest old Scottish Scotch are mentioned according to two attributes: the Scotch being light or rich (in alcohol) and the Scotch being smoky or rather delicate (the flavour). So next time you see another brand you can at least classify it :-)

Have fun tasting. ;-)

Glengoyne Distillery - Whisky, Whisky, Whisky

Glengoyne Distillery

As Sophie said previously, you can’t come in Scotland without visiting a Whisky Distillery !

The Glengoyne Distillery has been founded in 1833, and it is the only Whisky Distillery in the Highlands to produce Highland single malt whisky matured in the Lowlands. Indeed, the Distillery is situated upon the Highlands Line, which means that the Distillery is located in the Highlands part, while maturing casks of whisky are located in the Lowlands !

The staff is awesome and very friendly !

Three tickets are proposed, but the better value one is the one for £10: it includes the tour and you taste 2 Whiskies (a 12^th year old at the beginning, and a 18^th year at the end of the visit!).

Here are two useful links to learn more about other distilleries:
