Single malt whisky
Single malt whisky is malt whisky from a single distillery, that is, whisky distilled from fermented mash made exclusively with malted grain (usually barley), as distinguished from unmalted grain.
Single malts are typically associated with single malt Scotch, though they are also produced in various other countries.〔 Under Scotch Whisky Regulations, a "Single Malt Scotch Whisky" must be made exclusively from malted barley (although the addition of E150A caramel colouring is allowed), must be distilled using pot stills at a single distillery, and must be aged for at least three years in oak casks of a capacity not exceeding .〔(The Scotch Whisky Regulations 2009 ), ''The National Archives'', 2009.〕〔(The Scotch Whisky Regulations 2009: Guidance for Producers and Bottlers ), ''Scotch Whisky Association'', February 12, 2009.〕 While the Scotch model is usually copied internationally, these constraints may not apply to whisky marketed as ''single malt'' that is produced elsewhere. For example, there is no definition of the term ''single'' with relation to whisky in the law of the United States, and some American whiskey advertised as ''single malt whisky'' is produced from malted rye rather than malted barley.〔(Old Potrero Single Malt Straight Rye Whiskey ), ''Anchor Brewing Company''. (Accessed December 2010.)〕
==Production==
All single malt goes through a similar batch production process, as outlined below. There are several types of single malts available from distilleries including single barrel single malts which are the product of a single batch that was stored for three or more years in a single oak barrel. These single barrel variants afford the opportunity for the consumer to see the influence of different types of storage on the same whisky (e.g., first use bourbon whiskey barrels, port pipes, etc.). The more common form of Single Malt is a marrying at bottling time of various batches that are mixed or vatted to achieve consistent flavours from one bottling run to the next.
