Scotch whiskey, is a spirit distilled in Scotland and aged in oak barrels for a minimum of 3 years in Scotland.
There are five categories as defined late 2009 by the Scottish Whisky Association-
1)Single Malt
2)Blended Malt
3)Single grain
4)Blended grain
5)Blended whiskey
Single malt is made from only malted barley, yeast and water and is distilled in copper pot stills, aged a minimum of 3 years. It can only come from 1 distillery in Scotland.
Blended malt (or vatted malt) - is made in the same way as single malt but it can be blended together using single malt whiskey from any distillery in Scotland.
Single grain whiskey - is made from wheat instead of barley and is distilled at higher volume in modern stainless steel column stills. It must be aged for a minumum 3 years in oak barrels and can only come from 1 grain distillery.
Blended grain whiskey - is made in the same way as single grain but can be blended using grain whiskey from any grain distillery.
Blended whiskey - can contain whiskey from any single malt and any grain distillery in Scotland.
The two worth knowing about are numbers 1 and 5!
NB - Blended whiskey (Grant's, Johnnie Walker, Famous Grous etc) makes up around 85% of the total volume of Scotch whiskey sold around the world.
