Speyside single malts are single malt Scotch whiskies, distilled in Strathspey, the area around the River Spey in Moray and Badenoch and Strathspey, in northeastern Scotland. The two best-selling single malt whiskies in the world, The Glenlivet and Glenfiddich, come from Speyside. Strathspey has the greatest number of distilleries of any of the whisky producing areas of Scotland.[1] Dufftown alone has six working distilleries with an annual capacity of 40.4m litres of spirit.[2] The Speyside distilleries are mainly operated by leading international drinks groups including Diageo, LVMH and Pernod Ricard, by family-owned companies including J. & G. Grant and William Grant & Sons and by The Edrington Group (majority owned by a charitable trust). Scotland's Malt Whisky Trail is a tourism initiative featuring eight Speyside distilleries and the Speyside Cooperage.[3] Speyside also hosts an annual whisky festival known as "Spirit of Speyside".[4]Speyside whiskies can generally be classified as light and grassy (e.g. Glenlivet) or rich and sweet (e.g. Macallan).{{citation needed|date=October 2013}} Legal statusSpeyside is a "protected region" for Scotch Whisky distilling under UK Government legislation.[5] List of Speyside distilleries{{Div col|colwidth=10em}}
