Scotland is home to over 130 malt and grain distilleries, making it the greatest MAP OF concentration of whisky producers in the world.

Speymalt – by Macallan Aged 14 Years
Spirit Single Malt Whisky Speymalt – by Macallan aged 14 years Country: Scotland Region: Craigellachie-Speyside Producer: Gordon and MacPhail Range: Speymalt Range Bottling: Gordon and Macphail Bottling Style: Single Malt Whisky Water Source: from Bore Holes Age: Distilled 2005 - Bottled 2019 Cask Type: Sherry Colour: Amber Flavour Profile: Fruity Allergens: not known Bottle size: 70cl - abv: 43.0% Speymalt Here we have Gordon & MacPhail's 2019 bottling of its wonderful Speymalt range! The Macallan single malt was distilled in 2005, and matured in sherry casks until 2019. Then, Gordon & MacPhail bottled it up at 43% ABV. Sherried Macallan is always a winner in my book. Speyside All Speyside whiskies are Highland whiskies; but, not all Highland malts are Speysiders. What is the difference, why the distinction of the Speyside region? The answer is quite simply the River Spey. From its source in the Cairngorms National Park, the river meanders 107 miles, disgorging into the Moray Firth at Spey Bay. Speyside, located in the middle of the Highland region, is also considered by many the heartland of Scotch production. Today, more than half of Scotland’s working distilleries are located in this region. Geographically, Speyside encompasses the area east and west of the River Spey, partly in tandem with the Morayshire county lines. There are several key towns in region. Forres, to the east, is home to Benromach Distillery and a short drive from Dallas Dhu, a mothballed distillery now transformed into a visitor destination. Westerly are the distilleries of Strathisla, Strathmill, Glen Keith, and Aultmore, all located in Keith. Centrally situated is Gordon and MacPhails, offices, and warehouses in the Royal Burgh of Elgin, also known for its mediaeval cathedral ruins. -
