Frequently Asked Questions On Blended Malt Whisky

Blended Malt Whisky

Blended malt whisky is a type of Scotch whisky that combines single malt whiskies from two or more distilleries. Unlike blended Scotch whisky, which includes both malt and grain whiskies, blended malt consists solely of single malts. This allows for the creation of complex flavour profiles that maintain the character of malt whisky while offering unique taste experiences that individual distilleries might not achieve on their own. 

The key difference between blended malt and single malt is that single malt comes from one distillery, while blended malt combines malts from multiple distilleries. This gives blended malts the potential for greater complexity and allows blenders to create consistent flavour profiles year after year. Compared to blended Scotch, which includes grain whisky, blended malt offers a purer malt experience. It often delivers a richer, more complex flavour profile than standard blends, bridging the gap between single malts and traditional blended Scotch whiskies.

Blended malt whiskies offer a unique combination of flavours from different distilleries. Notable examples include Thompson Bros, known for their expertly crafted blends, and Campbeltown Loch, which offers a 5 Year Old expression that's highly regarded. Teeling, an Irish favourite, also produces exceptional blended malts, while Woven is a newer name in the industry, bringing a creative approach to whisky blending. These brands provide a diverse range of options for those looking to explore blended malts.

Blended malt whiskies are remarkably versatile and are suitable for various drinking preferences. Many can be enjoyed neat, allowing appreciation of their complex flavour profiles. Adding a few drops of water or serving over ice can help open up the aromas and soften any alcoholic heat, especially in higher-proof expressions. The balanced nature of many blended malts also makes them excellent candidates for whisky cocktails, providing depth and character without overpowering other ingredients. Some blended malts pair wonderfully with food, their complexity complementing a range of dishes from cheese boards to chocolate desserts.
