Once upon a time, there used to be a malt whiskey distillery in every town of any size in the Lowlands, supplying global demand as well as Scottish, now sadly, only a handful remain. Those distilleries still in existence are typically soft and approachable, clean and fresh on the palate – their appeal reaching far and wide. The whiskeys here tend to be light in color with a dry, crisp finish, making Lowland malt the aperitif of choice due to its generally sweet fruity essence; mellower than its Highland neighbor. The beauty of the Lowland malt is its versatility; it can be enjoyed by the whiskey learner and connoisseur alike. Perfect before dinner floral and fragrant, with a clean fresh flavor and a short, dry, gingery finish.80 Proof
