Made in Scotland, Scotch Whisky (also called Scotch or Whisky) is malt or grain Whisky. While it was primarily made of malted Barley, later distillers started using rye and wheat for its preparation. Scotch Whisky is the signature alcoholic beverage of Scotland. At Hello Drinks superstore, you can shop our wide range of alcoholic drinks, including Scotch Whisky at the best prices.
Every aspect of the production of Scotch Whisky, be it distillation, fermentation, ageing, or bottling, should be done in the country. It's common to see labels like "Scotch-style" Whisky in other countries; however, authentic Scotch Whisky is always from Scotland.
There are five Scotch Whisky regions, namely Islay, Highland, Lowland, Campbelltown, and Speyside. Each of these regions has its unique characteristics and traits for Scotch Whisky.
While Islay is famous for its fiery and peated whiskies, Highland whisky offers varieties ranging from lighter to salty coastal malts. Campbelltown is renowned for its robust and rich flavoured whiskies with smoke, salt, fruit, toffee, or vanilla hints.
Speyside is known for its fruity and peat whiskies matured in Sherry casks. It has the taste of pear, apple, honey, vanilla, and spice. Lowland offers light character whiskies consisting of soft and smooth malts.
Now, you can get your favourite Scotch Whisky brand delivered at home through Hello Drinks Superstore. We offer an extensive range of high-quality liquors in Australia. Shop with us now for the best discounts!
How is Scotch Whisky Made?
Scotch Whisky is prepared after a long process of malting, mashing, fermentation, and distillation. It is then made more flavourful through maturation. Let's understand the process in detail.
Malting
At first, the Barley is soaked inside a water tank called steep for a couple of days. The soaked seeds are then spread throughout the malting floor for germination. Germination is an essential step in Scotch Whisky preparation as it produces enzymes that solubilise the starch present in Barley.
That's from where the sugar originates. The entire malting process takes about a week or 12 days to complete. In this stage, Barley is turned to the right temperature. After germination, the Barley is dried inside the kiln.
Mashing
Mashing, as the name signifies, is the process where dried malt is converted into grist. It is then combined with water within a mash tun. This causes the soluble starch to convert into sugar and then a liquid named wort. All the residues produced during the process are used as animal fodder later.
Fermentation
In this step, the alcohol is prepared. Wort which was earlier produced in the mashing step is mixed with yeast to make the alcohol. It also produces wash, a liquid substance with low alcohol strength and other residues (after two days).
Distillation
The produced liquid is then heated in the pot stills. It is converted to vapour and transferred to a cooling plant for condensation. Condensation is a process where vapour is converted back into liquid.
Keep note that the distillation process is repeated twice. It's done to ensure that the liquid does not contain any unfermentable matter. The Whisky is then run for some time unless it reaches a satisfactory standard. Once it does, the Whisky is transferred to the receiver. The ultimate product should not contain the liquors from the last and first runs.
Maturation
As mentioned earlier, Scotch whiskies are matured in oak wood casks. During maturation, evaporation could occur. The time taken for the complete maturation of Scotch Whisky is about 15 years. It may also take more time, depending on the quantity. After maturation, the liquor is blended with other whiskies for varied tastes.
The time for Scotch Whisky maturation should be not less than three years. It should not contain any additives besides plain caramel colouring, water, or both.
Due to the presence of malted Barley, it has a malty flavour on consumption. The liquor may feel sharp and distinctive on the palate.
However, the taste varies as per the malt type and preparation process. Its other flavours include smoke, fruit, and vanilla. The alcohol by volume content of the drink is about 40 to 94.8%.
Hello Drinks Superstore is renowned for offering the most flavourful Scotch Whisky in Australia. We have suitable blends with a rich aroma and mesmerising appearance. To get the best values on Scotch Whisky, place your order now!
What are the Different Types of Scotch Whisky?
Scotch Whisky is primarily divided into two types: single malt and single grain. They are further sub-categorised into more varieties called blends.
Shop for Single Malt Whisky
Popular in Northern America, single Malt Whisky is made by one distillery. It is produced through malted Barley and water without any cereals. Being a Scotch Whisky, each of its production steps should be conducted in Scotland.
Buy Single Grain Scotch Whisky
Different from single malt, single grain Scotch Whisky is produced with water, malted Barley, and cereals/whole grains. It should be manufactured in Scotland just like the single malt variety. A majority of blends are made from single grain Scotch Whisky.
Order Blended Scotch Whisky
Clear from the name itself, Blended Scotch is a blend of single malt and single grain varieties. One can use more than one single malt or single grain Scotch Whisky.
Buy Blended Malt Scotch
Blended Malt Scotch is a combination of two or more single malt Scotch Whiskies sourced from separate distilleries. It's an uncommon liquor, often famous for its other names like pure malt and vatted malt.
Shop for Blended Grain Scotch
Unlike blended Malt Scotch, the blended grain Scotch uses two or more single grain Scotch Whiskies from different distilleries. The blend of both the liquor makes blended Grain Scotch.
Double Malt Scotch Delivered
While there is no such existence of double Malt Scotch, one may have heard the term quite often. It just means that the Scotch is aged in two different casks. Regardless of the cask number used in its preparation, double malt Scotch belongs to the single malt category.
Be it single grain or single malt, Hello Drinks Superstore offers all varieties of Scotch Whisky to satisfy your palettes.
Our liquor list includes the best blends picked from both local and professional stores. We are always stocked with your favourite blends!
How to Drink Scotch Whisky?
Unlike varieties of beer, Scotch Whisky is a sipping-liquor and not chugging one. The reason is its intense aroma and lasting finish. Make sure to familiarise yourself with the categories of Scotch and then move on to drinking the liquor.
1. Pour Your Scotch Whisky
Start by pouring your liquor into glassware. When it comes to Scotch, it's recommended to choose the ideal types of glassware. That way, you will be able to relish the aroma and flavour precisely.
The best glassware for Scotch Whisky neat is Whisky snifter or tulip-shaped glass. You could also opt for a rocks glass.
2. Dilute the Liquor
Whisky Scotch tastes excellent when diluted with a splash of water. The trapped flavours of the liquor may taste and smell better. For old bottles, you should definitely add water to enhance the flavour.
3. Add Ice
Another way to dilute the Scotch Whisky is through the ice. Make sure to use the bigger ice cubes for slow melting.
That way, the flavour of Scotch Whisky won't disappear. Ice is a great way to relish chilled Scotch. As it works as a dilution, the flavours will open up!
4. Prepare Cocktails
Scotch Whisky also makes an ideal liquor for both modern and classic cocktails. When combined with the right ingredients, Scotch cocktails mirror versatility.
You could go for something as basic as Scotch and Soda to classics like the Godfather. You can also find out the best Whisky cocktail recipes here.
It goes well with specific food pairings like cheese, chocolate, grilled or smoked meat. Tart fruits like apples or pears taste good with the liquor too.
Best Way to Savour Scotch Whisky
After making the drink, it's time to savour the flavour and aroma of the liquor. Here's how you can do so
Pour and Swirl
Add around 30 ml of Scotch Whisky and then swirl the glass. Swirling covers the glassware with a thin film of liquor.
That way, you will be able to enjoy the smell of Scotch Whisky nicely. Then, take a close look at the drink. Its texture, colour, and appearance is a treat to the eyes.
Smell Your Scotch!
Make sure to smell the Scotch Whisky while keeping your mouth open. It helps you get a taste of liquor too!
Try to smell the Scotch Whisky for about 20-30 seconds and savour the smell. You may encounter a smoky, salty, fruity, sweet or woody aroma in your drink.
Sip it Smooth
Do not gulp down a large amount of Scotch Whisky. Instead, sip an amount that only coats your tongue.
