Vatted malt

Encyclopedia : V : VA : VAT : Vatted malt

Vatted Malt is a whisky which is blended from a number of different single malts from different distilleries. Unlike a blended whisky, vatted malts do not contain any grain whisky.

The term "vatting" is used to describe the blending process - and does not automatically equate to a vatted malt.

Vatted malts are also known as pure malts.

One of the most popular vatted malts is Johnnie Walker Green Label (labelled a pure malt by the company).
