The best Highland whiskies

The Highlands are Scotland’s largest and most varied region: from the coastal, slightly briny north to rich sherry-matured whiskies, by way of light and floral ones. With so much variety, it’s worth checking the flavour profile before choosing. Here are the Highland whiskies the community likes most.

How we make this list

We rank the whiskies by the community’s votes (“Love it”, “Like it” or “Don’t like it”), adjusted for how many each one has: that way, two enthusiastic votes don’t jump ahead of two hundred. There are still few votes, so for now the easiest to find in Spain go first. The order never depends on what we earn.

  1. Highlands, Scotland

    GlenDronach 12 Year Old Original

    A Highland malt much appreciated by sherry lovers. It matures in Pedro Ximénez and oloroso casks, so the profile is dominated by dried fruit, chocolate and spice, with a dense, oily body.

    Tomatin Legacy

    A no-age-statement Tomatin malt that combines bourbon and virgin oak casks. The new oak gives it a vanilla sweetness and a spicy hint, while the base brings fresh fruit and citrus.

    • Fruity
