	Scotch whisky - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Scotch whisky is divided into four distinct categories: single malt, vatted malt (also called "pure malt") blended and single grain.
		The Scotch Whisky Association recently introduced new terminology, whereby a "Vatted Malt" is to be referred to as a "Blended Malt".
		Blended Scotch whisky is a mixture of single malt whisky and grain whisky, usually from multiple distilleries.
