In this full-length guide, I explore all five official Scotch whisky regions — the Highlands, Lowlands, Speyside, Islay and Campbeltown — plus make the case for a sixth: the Islands. From windswept coastlines to inland glens, we’ll unpack how geography, climate, history and production styles all play a role in shaping each region’s unique whisky character.
