This has a slightly broader view but much less depth than Scotch_whisky or Single_malt_Scotch.

All Bourbon is technically "Single Malt" so Wiki is wrong all over the place on this issue.

The above comment is completely wrong.

Bourbon is absolutely NOT single malt as the only rule is that at least 51% of the mash consist of corn and Malted barley is ALWAYS part of the mash bill. Also the corn in Bourbon is NOT malted.

The term "Single Malt", without a qualifier, generally refers to Malted Barley UNLESS another grain is specifically mentions: e.g., Single Malt Rye

Scotchblog is right. In answer to the first point, it has now expanded from a stub. Buyo 18 June 2007 (UTC)

Edited the Scotch Pages link. "Great new" site seemed a bit biased.
