	Lowland Single Malts - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Lowland Single Malts are single malt whiskies distilled in the lowlands of Scotland.
		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.

		Thus Irish Single malts are made in the same pot-stills as the standard Irish Whiskies but from 100% malted barley.

	Single Malt Scotch Whisky Information - scotchwhisky.net
		A Single Malt Scotch Whisky is the product of one specific distillery and has not been mixed with whisky from any other distilleries.
		The greatest concentration of malt whisky distilleries can be found in the Speyside region of north-east Scotland, with Highland, Lowland and Islay being the other main malt whisky producing zones.
		Each of these regions has its own particular distinctive style of malt whisky and although it is not possible for two malts to be identical, even if the distilleries that produce them happen to stand side by side, it is usually possible to distinguish in which region of Scotland a particular whisky was made.

		Single malts are as different from one another as Burgundy wines are from Bordeaux: a soft, sweetish Lowland malt like Auchentoshan is a wholly different taste experience from Laphroaig, one of the tangy, medicinal whiskies produced on the isle of Islay (pronounced EYE-la).
