Commonly Asked Questions
What is the difference between Scotch whisky and single malt?
Single malt Scotch whisky is distilled from a fermented mash made entirely of malted barley from a single distillery. Blended Scotch whisky combines single malt with grain whiskies from multiple distilleries. Blended Scotch comprises the majority of Scotch whisky production.
What whisky is single malt?
A single malt whisky must be produced from a single distillery and made using one variety of malted grain—typically malted barley. Unlike blended whiskies, it does not mix malt whisky with grain whisky from different distilleries.
What does single malt mean in Scotch whisky?
Single malt signifies that the whisky is produced from a single distillery and not blended with whiskies from other distilleries. It must be distilled in Scotland and matured in oak casks for a minimum of three years, although most are aged longer.
Why is single malt Scotch so good?
The exceptional quality of single malt Scotch comes from meticulous craftsmanship and extended maturation. This attention to detail results in distinct, complex flavors highly esteemed by whisky connoisseurs around the world.
Why is single malt Scotch so expensive?
Single malt whiskies are typically produced in small batches, making them rarer and more costly. The unique production processes and distinct characteristics of each distillery further add to their appeal and price point.
