Grain Whisky

Grain Whisky

Grain whisky is made from cereals such as corn or wheat, often using a column still for higher yields and a lighter spirit. It typically serves as the base in blended Scotch but is increasingly bottled as a standalone category.
Flavor profiles are light, sweet, and creamy, with notes of vanilla, coconut, and soft citrus. Aged grain whisky can be surprisingly complex, offering caramel, toasted oak, and buttery smoothness.
Produced largely in central Scotland, grain whisky matures well due to its lower congener content and is especially influenced by cask selection and warehouse climate, not land or seasonal shifts.
