The legal classifications of Scotch whisky can seem confusing to the uninitiated, not least because terms such as Blended Malt Scotch Whisky, Blended Scotch Whisky and Blended Grain Scotch Whisky sound deceptively similar. In practice, however, the distinctions are straightforward once one understands that the labels describe both the type of whisky involved and whether it comes from one distillery or several. Under current law, Scotch whisky is divided into five recognised categories, of which Blended Grain Scotch Whisky is one.
In short Blended Grain Scotch Whisky, is grain whisky - that is to say whisky made from grain other than malted barley - that has been distilled at a number of different Scottish distilleries. It has then been matured for no less than three years in casks stored in Scotland and bottled at a minimum strength of 40% ABV.
