What makes Scotch Whisky Unique?
American whiskey, particularly Bourbon, typically uses a grain bill that includes at least 51% corn, which imparts a sweeter avor profile, along with smaller percentages of barley, rye, or wheat. In contrast, Scotch whisky is predominantly made from malted barley, and while some blends may
include other grains, malted barley is the dominant ingredient, contributing to its distinctive earthy, smoky, or peaty flavors. Scotch may also feature peated malt for a smokier character depending on the region.
