Single Malt Scotch Whisky

The appeal to single malt scotch is the variety of tastes available. With over 80 different brands of single malts available and no two tasting alike the experience of exploring the different single malts is something many have found enjoyable. Well known scotch reviewer Michael Jackson, not to be confused with Michael-Jackson, has published six volumes of a book called The Complete Guide to Single Malt Whisky which has become a standard amongst scotch drinkers for tasting notes.
