Pure pot still Irish whiskey is similar to a single malt, in that it is not blended with grain whiskey. It is, therefore, a straight whiskey. It is now only made in one distillery in the world - Midleton in Co. Cork. It is made differently to single malt because the MASH it is brewed and distilled is made from both malted and unmalted barley. The enzymes in the malted barley effectively stimulate the production of malt in the unmalted barley. There are only a few of these on the market today - Redbreast 12 and Green Spot. The others you get now and again are limited editions.

What is the difference in single barrel and single malt whiskeys?
Jack Daniels is a brand of whiskey (one of the most famous). It is classed as a Tennessee Straight whiskey (made primarily of corn) which is like Bourbon whiskey except the raw distillate is filtered through charcoal prior to barrel aging."Single malt" is a class of whiskey that describes it as being entirely the end product of a single malted grain (barley or rye are prime candidates) at a single distillery. Well-aged Single Malt Scotch whiskey is considered among the most prestigious whiskeys in the world.
Why is jack Daniels not a true whiskey?
It contains 51% corn in the mash, which makes it a bourbon. It has to contain less than 51% of anything to be a straight whiskey, or 51% rye to be a rye whiskey. It is filtered uniquely by using sugar maple charcoal, but it is still technically a bourbon.

What is the difference between how single malt and blended whiskeys are made?
I believe the "pure malt" referred to is actually a "single single" malt. Single malt is when whiskey comes from a single malting, or batch of malted barley. This just means that the same batch of malted barley was used to make all the whiskey in that particular bottle you are drinking. It can come from many different actual batches/vats of whiskey as long as the same malt is used. Single single is when all the whiskey came from the same batch of whiskey, not just the same batch of malted grain. However, sometimes even single single malt whiskey is not pure. It is sometimes watered down to obtain the desired proof, or alcoholic content. The purest form of whiskey is barrel strength single single malt. This means it is a single single malt that has not been watered down. This may actually be the "pure malt" that you heard about. For anybody wondering about double malt, it is simply whiskey made using whiskey made from two separate malts. When any more than two malts are used, it is generally referred to simply as "malt whiskey" or "blended malt" whiskey. The reason superb single malts are so expensive is the fact that if the malt is sub-par, then it cannot be used and a new malt must be done. On the opposite end of the spectrum, this is also why some single malts are so cheap. They aren't after that 'perfect' whiskey. They're just making whiskey as cheap as possible... kinda like the McDonald's of whiskey. This also applies to blended malt whiskeys. Some are truly superb because of the extensive blending that goes into making them exactly how the blendmaster wants them. Double or blended malts make up most of your mid-price whiskey due to the ease of mixing multiple malts to come up with a mediocre product... not the smoothest on the market, but far from the bottom of the barrel, so to speak.

When did Irish whiskey and beer become world famous?
Sometime after 1831: In the early stages of whiskey production, the whiskey was blended with a thick malt. This gave the drink an almost soupy consistency and a deep, smoky flavor. This smoky flavor came from the peat that distillers used in the fires to dry the malt. However, in 1831 Aeneas Coffey invented a still, which enabled a continual process of distillation to take place. This led to the production of the grain whiskies of today. This lighter, more drinkable grain whiskey extended the appeal of whiskey to a considerably wider consumer market. Whiskey has survived the United States prohibition, countless wars and rebellions, harsh taxation, depression and recession, to maintain its position as one of the world�s most coveted liquors. Whiskey can be purchased in almost two hundred countries worldwide. Whiskey has surely left the Gaelic borders from which it was born and has spread throughout the world, infecting millions with its intoxicating luxury. Believe it or not, Irish whiskey was the number one selling whiskey in the world in Victorian times. The world went whisk(e)y mad after the failure of the grape crop in France meant the supply of Brandy was stunted. Everyone turned to whisk(e)y, and the most coveted whiskey was Irish pure pot still whiskey. However, a number of events conspired to shrink the industry to a meare two distilleries. Prohabition in America, protectionist policies in Ireland, the Temperance Movement, war with the British Empire, bootlegging... the list goes on. Thankfully, the industry is growing again. The Irish whiskey industry has grown to three distilleries, with another two opening soon.
