Scottish Whisky – The essence of Scotland in every glass

Scottish whisky, or "Scotch", is not just a drink, but a piece of culture that has been deeply rooted in the history and traditions of Scotland for centuries. With its unmistakable character, shaped by the landscape, climate and craftsmanship, it delights connoisseurs around the world. Whether for special occasions such as New Year's Eve, the famous Burns' Supper or simply a cozy evening - a glass of Scotch brings the unique magic of the Scottish Highlands straight into your living room.

The diversity of Scottish whiskies – A journey of discovery

Scottish whisky offers an impressive variety of aromas and flavour profiles that span the different regions of Scotland. From the peaty Islay whiskies to the fruity Speyside malts and the smoky island whiskies, each region has its own special characteristics.

The Scottish whisky regions at a glance

• Highlands : Scotland's largest whisky region offers a wide range of flavours, from maritime, salty notes in the north to smooth, honeyed whiskies in the interior.
• Speyside : Famous for its fruity and balanced malts, the Speyside region is home to some of the world's most famous whiskies. Notes of apple, pear and toffee dominate here.
• Islay : Whiskies from the small island of Islay are known for their strong peat and smoky notes. These malts are not for the faint-hearted and offer an intense taste experience that is second to none.
• Lowlands : The whiskies from the Lowlands are characterized by their lightness and floral notes. The triple distillation makes them particularly mild and ideal for beginners.
• Islands : This region includes the whiskies from islands such as Skye, Orkney and Jura. They often combine maritime notes with smoky and spicy characters.

How to enjoy Scottish whisky properly

A good Scotch should be enjoyed consciously and calmly. The ideal drinking temperature is between 18 and 22 degrees Celsius. Use a special nosing glass or a tumbler to bring out the aromas to their fullest. To intensify the taste, you can add a few drops of spring water - this often reveals hidden aromas.

Tasting tip : Swirl the whisky gently in the glass and look for the “tears” on the glass wall. These streaks indicate the alcohol content and viscosity of the whisky.
