Single grain whisky is a mixture of grain whisky from casks of the same distillery. Grain whisky can be made from different grains, and is distilled in continuous stills. The whisky for single grain bottlings has often been matured for decades in oak barrels, what has given it its flavor.
The Cambus grain distillery in the Lowlands closed in 1993, but Signatory Vintage still occasionally releases new bottlings of this single grain whisky. Here's another one! The grain is 30 years old and matured in a refill sherry cask. (54.4%)
A single grain bottling from Suntory: the Chita.
In addition to single malt whisky, the Rotterdam Cley Distillery also makes whisky based on malt and rye. The Whisky is distilled three times according to a 17th century recipe. This is a new batch of this Malt & Rye. 3 years old and bottled at 46% ABV.
In general, single grain whisky gets a good flavor through maturation. So it's all right with this Girvan, bottled by the Thompson brothers, which matured for 32 years in two bourbon casks. A sweet and, despite its age, fresh dram. (48.7%)
The Girvan grain distillery was built in 1963 in the Lowlands, mainly intended as a supplier of grain whisky for the blending industry. However, single grain bottlings such as this 27-year-old from The Whisky Blues are also regularly released. (55.1%)
If you want to try an Irish single grain whiskey, one that is aged on bourbon, and finished on sherry and then at a reasonable price: here is the Glendalough Double Barrel. Light, pleasant to drink, but also complex. Something different!
Invergordon is one of the best-known and well-appreciated single grain whiskies. So pay attention to this bottling from Berry Bros & Rudd. This Invergordon matured for 34 years in a bourbon cask, a barrel. Of course,e it is bottled at cask strength: 59.6%
The second Invergordon bottling from bottler Brachadair (‘Belgian roots…but Gaelic at heart’). This Invergordon single grain whisky is 33 years old. It matured all this time in a bourbon cask, a barrel. The grain was bottled in 193 bottles at 55.6%.
Has nothing to do with coffee, Coffey is the type of still with which this Japanese blended grain whisky is made. That resulted in a fruity, light, pleasantly drinkable dram, a whisky for those long summer evenings. Bottled at 45%.
In general, single grain whisky only becomes interesting after several decades of maturation. So that's a good thing with this North British edition: the grain whisky matured for 32 years in a bourbon cask before being bottled by Brachadair at 43.1%.
North British is one of Scotland's largest grain distilleries. There are hardly any distillery bottlings of their single grain whisky, but fortunately, there are bottlings by third parties. A very nicely priced one is this one from Signatory Vintage. (46%
Bottler Signatory Vintage also has an affordable bottling series for single grain whisky: The Single Grain Collection. In that series, this bottling of a 15-year-old grain from the Port Dundas Distillery, which closed in 2010, appeared in 2022. (43%)
The Irish Teeling released this 15-year-old single grain whisky. That is young for a single grain, but that does not detract from the drinkability: fruity and fresh, and you can clearly taste that it has been finished in sauvignon blanc casks. (50%)
They also make single grain whisky in Ireland. The Teeling Whiskey Company already has about twenty single grain bottlings to its name. It matured in Cabernet Sauvignon wine casks and is bottled at 46%. Not chill-filtered or colored.
