Types of Scotch
Are you a Scotch fan? Chances are, you’ll know the Scotch you love. In most of these cocktails, you can use whatever you have on hand! Here’s a little more about Scotch types:
Blended Scotch: Blended Scotch has a smooth flavor: almost like bourbon, but with more of a spicy finish. As its name suggests, it’s made by blending two types of whisky: barrel-aged malt whisky and grain whisky. Most of the cocktails above call for blended Scotch. Single Malt Scotch: Single malt Scotch is a malt whisky that’s from one distillery, and it’s usually more expensive. What does single malt Scotch taste like? The flavor is a bit stronger than a blended Scotch, with peaty and smoky notes.
