The region of Speyside is located in the northeast of Scotland surrounding the River Spey; it's a sub-region to the neighbouring Highlands because of the high density of distilleries in the area. It's home to the highest number of distilleries in Scotland, with well over 60 at present.
Speyside is known for its wide range of whiskies displaying different characters, famously for sweet single malts with either very little peat or no peat present at all. Because of this style, Speyside tends to be an excellent entry-level for those beginning their Whisky adventure. They allow the user to discover their favourite tastes when it comes to drinking single malts.
Some of the World's most famous whiskies are produced in Speyside, Glenlivet, Glenfiddich, and The Macallan are World-renowned scotch whiskies; these three distilleries alone make up one-third of the entire single malt market. More than 60% of Scotland's whole single malt production is from the active distilleries of Speyside; this shows how important this region is in terms of exports of Scotch and Scottish produce around the World.
