Blended Whisky

by

Blended whisky (also spelled blended whiskey in some regions) is a type of whisky made by combining — or “blending” — two or more different whiskies (and sometimes other spirits) to create a balanced, consistent final product. The term “blended” is used in different ways depending on the country and regulations, but the core idea is mixing whiskies from various sources, distilleries, ages, or styles to achieve a desired flavor profile, smoothness, and affordability. Think of blended whisky as the “orchestra” of the spirits world. While a single malt is like a solo cellist—distinct, powerful, and specific—a blend is about harmony, consistency, and scale. History Of The Blended Whisky The history of blended whisky is essentially the story of how a “rough” local spirit from the Scottish Highlands became a global juggernaut. …

Single Malt

by

Single Malt Whisky refers to a specific term where there is one type of grain used, one distillery and one type of still. To be a Single Malt , the spirit must be aged in oak casks for minimum of three years and one day and it must be bottled at minimum strength of 40%. The three year minimum time rule ensures the spirit interacts sufficiently with the wood, developing colour, flavour and the aroma. The history of single malt is a story of survival. For centuries, it was the only type of whisky made in Scotland, but it nearly disappeared in the 20th century, only to be “rediscovered” as a luxury item in the last 60 years. To be legally classified as a single malt (specifically Scotch), the whisky must be …
