WHISKY

Formerly considered “Water of Life” that revived the dead, Whiskey had its origins in the distillation of malt. Whiskey is an alcoholic beverage of almost unlimited variety, since in the 19th century, the Scots began to mix Malt Whiskey with Grain Whiskey, which opened the doors to different types of Blended and Single Malt Whiskey.

The different types of whiskey are mainly characterized by the years they have remained in the barrel or whether it previously contained port wine, sherry or bourbon.

Single Malt: it is a whiskey made exclusively with malted barley in a single distillery

Vatted malt: it is a mixture of whiskeys from different distilleries, but only malt.

Grain whiskey: made from unmalted barley, corn and other types of cereals, malting is also possible.

Blended whiskey or mixed whiskey: it is a mixture of the previous two. With the proliferation of distillation columns, some merchants in Scotland began blending their younger, stronger single malt whiskeys with mild grain whiskeys (usually corn) to obtain a product of acceptable quality at a more affordable price.
