Speyside malts are usually unpeated, so the flavor comes from the spirit and the cask. Expect orchard fruit, honey, vanilla, and malt from ex-bourbon casks, or dried fruit, Christmas cake, and spice from sherry casks, a style Speyside is famous for. That approachability makes Speyside the classic starting point for anyone new to single malt.
