Whisky and Malt Whisky

The Malt Whisky industry started life illegally and furtively in the remote Glens of Highland Scotland, where the Excise men had a harder job finding the stills. Gradually licenced over the years, and finding that whiskies stored in oak casks for a number of years were much nicer than the raw young spirit, Malt Whisky has emerged as a world beater. Styles vary according to region, tradition, the shape of the still, length and manner of wood ageing amongst other factors. It's fascinating and utterly tasty.

Whilst the Highlanders were hiding their pot stills amongst the heather, in the Lowlanders were developing more efficient (and legal) continuous stills that produced lots of whisky from various grains. In time, it was found that the cheaper but less interesting grain whisky of the Lowlands was much improved by being blended with the more characterful whiskies of the Highlands and the blended whisky was born.
