LOWLAND SINGLE MALTS


'Lowland Single Malts' are single malt whiskies distilled in the lowlands of Scotland. The region, once having a number of distilleries, now only has three operating distilleries: Glenkinchie, Auchentoshan, and Bladnoch. At least six other lowland single malts are still available, but no longer distilled, Rosebank, Kinclaith, St. Magdalene, Ladyburn, Inverleven and Littlemill.
Traditionally Lowland Single Malts are triple distilled (though this has not been true of all of them), often giving them a lighter taste. This likely played a role in the waning of the Lowland distilleries, as many single malt drinkers prefer somewhat heavier whiskies, while those who prefer lighter ones are often satisfied with the less expensive blends
