Single malt Scotch is a type of whisky produced in Scotland from malted barley at a single distillery. It must be distilled and matured in Scotland for a minimum of three years in oak casks to meet legal standards. The term “single malt” indicates that the whisky comes from one distillery rather than being blended from multiple sources. Different regions of Scotland—such as Speyside, Islay, Highlands, and Lowlands—produce distinct flavor profiles influenced by local water sources, peat usage, and aging conditions. Single malt Scotch may exhibit notes ranging from fruity and floral to smoky and peaty. Alcohol content, cask type, and maturation period all affect its complexity and character.
