Yes, scotch whiskey is whiskey made in Scotland. You will notice that although there is good whiskey made in other countries, Ireland for example, the bottle will say what kind of whiskey it is : single, double malt, blend but not call it scotch.
== == The whiskey was blended by Joseph E. Seagram for his son's wedding. The blend was different than the traditional "7" blend and was therefore given the classification as the family's "Very Own" blend.
If spelled whisky (not whiskey) the i assume Scotch Whisky that is under Brittish regulation. Then Blend is any portion of grain whisky blended with malt whisky. Normally more grain than malt. It could also be a "blend malt whisky" then it is all malt whisky but from more than one dstillery.
Blended Whisky IS Scotch. Blended Whisky is, as the name suggests, a carefully selected blend of different whiskies.
Ingredients: *1 1/2 oz bourbon *1 1/2 oz lemon juice *3/4 oz sugar syrup *maraschino cherry for garnish Preparation: Pour the bourbon, lemon juice, and sugar syrup into a shaker with ice cubes. Shake well. Strain into a chilled sour glass. Garnish with the cherry
no, I called them- hasn't been discontinued
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.
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.
3 parts governing Single Malt... Whisky produced from only - malted barley, yeast and water, in a pot still. Distilled and aged in Scotland at only ONE distillery, and aged for a minimum of 3 years in oak casks. Bottled at a minimum strength of 40% abv. Blended whiskey on the other hand... Can be made from a vatting of grain whiskey (distilled in a column or pot still from any grain) and Single Malt whiskey from any distillery. Distilled and aged in Scotland for a minumum of 3 yrs in oak casks. If I wanted to make a blend, I could buy any whiskey over 3yrs old from any grain distillery or any single maly distillery and vat it together.
Single malt means that the scotch blend was all done at one distillery.
Rye blend typically refers to a mix of different rye whiskies or grains used in the production of whiskey. It can contain a mixture of rye, corn, barley, and other grains, blended together to create a unique flavor profile in the final product. The blending process allows whiskey makers to achieve a desired taste and balance in their rye whiskey.
AFAIK it's a blend of whiskies from Suntory's Yamazaki, Hakushu, and Chita distilleries (two of which is available worldwide).
