	An Introduction To Single Malt Whisky
		A whisky that is labelled generically "scotch" is blended and contains only 40 to 60% malt whisky with the remainder comprised of whisky made from cheaper unmalted grain.
		The term whisky is a derivative of the expression "water of life" known in in Gaelic as "uisge (pronounced ooska) beatha." Over time uisge has been Anglicised to "whisky." The first whiskies were produced in the 15th century by monastic orders.
		he malted barley is ground in a mill and is then referred to as "grist." The grist is loaded into a vessel called a mash tun and is warmed with water to 64°C. At this temperature the enzymes present in the malt convert the remaining starches into sugar.

	Guardian Unlimited Books \| Review \| Review: Raw Spirit by Iain Banks
		It seems disputable, to say the least, that the best way to taste malt whisky is to sit in the visitor centre of the place where it's made and have a glass at the end of the tour.
		The way whisky tastes is very much a function of where it is made, the water used and the fuel for the heat during the malting process.
		Whisky, as he says, has always been "up to its pretty bottle neck" in politics, but it seems that very few of the distillers and drinkers he meets see the connection in the present case, so this aspect of the book remains a personal obsession.

	Single Malt Scotch Whisky Information - scotchwhisky.net
		A Single Malt Scotch Whisky is the product of one specific distillery and has not been mixed with whisky from any other distilleries.
		The greatest concentration of malt whisky distilleries can be found in the Speyside region of north-east Scotland, with Highland, Lowland and Islay being the other main malt whisky producing zones.
		Each of these regions has its own particular distinctive style of malt whisky and although it is not possible for two malts to be identical, even if the distilleries that produce them happen to stand side by side, it is usually possible to distinguish in which region of Scotland a particular whisky was made.

	Malt Madness - by Johannes van den Heuvel (All about single malt scotch whisky, not whiskey)
		The quality of 'antique' malts isn't neccessarily higher than that of modern malts, but here we have a perfect example of just how magnificent some of those oldies can be.
		I usually tend to prefer overproof malts to those bottled at a whimpier 40 or 43%, but in this case the bottling with the lower ABV provides the depth and complexity that attracted me to single malts in the first place.
		However, for a full-time malt maniac like myself a malt needs to show something special to reach the 80's and a score in the 90's is reserved for the very best of the best; a precious few whiskies that deserve to be remembered forever.

		While many do tout the fine quality of some blended whiskies, real experts and fans of good Scotch know that single malt is where the flavor is. You'll pay more for older single malts, but you will indeed reap a generous return on your investment if you choose well.
