Grain whisky is any type of whisky made in Scotland that is solely produced from grains other than malted barley, and distilled in a column still. Grain whiskies are a cousin to Single Malt whiskies and are an important part of what makes Scotch Blended whisky so special - they are in some regards the glue the ties the malts together in a blend.

In Scotland there are four grain distilleries and compared to single malt whiskies, they are not readily available as a brand.
These are fascinating whiskies to try, uniquely different to other whiskies, and at the present time they offer extremely good value for money their age compared to single malts.
