10-Year-Old Single Malt refers to a type of whisky that has been aged in barrels for a minimum of ten years. This aging process allows the spirit to develop complex flavors and aromas, influenced by the wood and the environment in which it is stored. Single malt whisky is made from malted barley at a single distillery, ensuring a unique character that reflects the distillery's style. The age statement, such as "10-Year-Old," indicates the youngest whisky in the bottle. Therefore, all the whisky in the bottle must be at least ten years old. This aging contributes to the smoothness and depth of flavor, making it a popular choice among whisky enthusiasts.
