Black Dog- Capturing the Flavours of Scotland


One of the biggest boons of Scotland is that it is made up of a wide variety of geographical and climatic zones. In terms of scotch production, the country can be divided into four major regions- the Highlands, the Lowlands, Speyside and the Islands. Each zone has its distinct features, which significantly contribute to the ingredients, aroma and the taste of the brews.

  • ·         Islands- The barren, rugged and windswept islands of Islay and Skye, located amidst the Hebridean Scottish Isles are important producers of single malt scotch. The whiskies from this region have a powerful flavor, and bear strong smoky and maritime odours.


  • ·         Highlands- The breathtaking Highlands, surrounded by lofty hills, and rocky moors, is the largest scotch producing region in Scotland. The whisky of this region is marked by a smooth and floral scent.


  • ·         Speyside- The Speyside region, located along the river Spey is known for its lush greenery. A number of ingredients like vanilla, honey, pears and apples are combined, and matured in sherry caskets to deliver a fine taste, and elegant fruity and spicy aroma.


  • ·         Lowlands- The sprawling green fields of the Lowlands is ideal for growing grains, which go into making some of the finest grain malts. The flavour as well as the fragrance of the Lowland whiskies is fresh, light and floral.
