Scotch Whisky
Whisky is one of the world’s most popular distilled spirits. True whisky experts know that a lifetime is not enough to explore the full range of the world’s finest whiskies. Whisky or whiskey? Many people ask this question. The answer is simple: while "whisky" refers to Scotch and Canadian whiskies, "whiskey" is the spelling used for Irish and American brands. Whether we talk about whisky or whiskey, both terms refer to the same remarkable grain spirit, made unique by aging in oak barrels.
Whisky can be produced in many ways and from various types of grains. When it comes to the grains used, we can distinguish between malt whiskey and grain whiskey. Depending on how many distilleries the whisky’s base comes from, we can talk about single grain, single malt, or blended whisky. The characteristic of single grain and single malt whiskies is that their base is sourced from a single distillery, while blended whiskies are made by combining spirits from multiple sources.
