soyouwanna.com SCOTCH outline


A.Scotch is a type of whiskey
1. In order for it to be called whiskey it must be distilled in Scotland.
a. There are two types of whiskey distilled in Scotland; grain and malt.
2.Blended scotch is made from blends of up to 50 different kinds of grain and malt whiskies.
a.95% of the Scotch exported from Scotland is of the blended variety but that's not because the rest of the world has poor taste; most of the scotch consumed in Scotland is also blended.

B.Blended whisky's popularity can probably be explained by two factors:
1.first, it is less strongly flavored and challenging to the palate than single malt whiskies, and second, it is usually less expensive.
2.Blends have much less snob value than single malts, though, and they don't have as much character or flavor. Serious scotch drinkers usually stick to single malts.

and on that note you now all know the same alcoholic knowledge as Sean Connery
