single malt whiskys

Whisky made from a single malt is a result of time, and the process of making it is an art form. Along with being a personal form of craftwork, it is an art form that can only be achieved through years of practice. The production of single malt began in Scotland, and the required aging time ranges from ten to thirty years.

Origins

scotch whisky has a history that stretches back hundreds of years, making it one of the oldest beverages in the world. The earliest known instance of it being documented in written form in Scotland dates back to the year 1494. In point of fact, it was at Lindores Abbey in Fife that the first distillation in Scotland is believed to have taken place.


The very first spirit to be distilled was called "aqua vitae," which literally translates to "water of life" in Latin. Friar John Cor, who is widely regarded with being the inventor of Scotch Whisky, is the one who originally coined the term.


Although this beverage has been around for more than 523 years, it was only recently brought back into production. The fact that it has such a significant historical background makes it a wonderful present for people who enjoy single malt whisky.


It is estimated that there are over twenty million casks of whiskey stored in warehouses located all around Scotland. These barrels are allowed to age in peace, and their contents will one day be weighed and evaluated.


It's likely that the first whiskey to be distilled in Scotland was extremely powerful and potentially lethal. Despite this, the process of distilling and aging whiskey has become more refined throughout the years, and yet the spirit has managed to maintain its distinctive characteristics.
