Is there such a thing as a 'best' Scotch whiskey?

Answer - 'Best' Scotch WhiskyThe short answer is NO. It is all down to personal taste. There are three types of Scotch Whisky (correct spelling) Blended, Single Malt and Pure Malt. There are over 2500 brands of Scotch Whisky, only 200 or so are available for the home market. The rest are for export, private clubs, collector's etc. The best Whisky is the one that someone else buys for you. Just to say that there is also Delux blends that contain a higher proportion of malt whiskey as opposed to grain.There is also whiskey known as vatted malt.

How do you describe scotch?

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.
