Bourbon is as American as apple pie. Some might argue it is more American than apple pie, but most of the rest of the world makes their whiskey from malted barley. In the US there is a growing trend toward producers making American Single Malts. It is a fast growing and exciting category for whiskey enthusiasts. In this episode we talk with one of the category's leading experts Matt Drew. Matt is maltster and he runs the growing podcast Single Malt Matters. Matt and I represent our respective spirits (Bourbon and American Single Malts), and we explain the differences between the two and the likely progression of American Single Malts as the US laws change to keep up with the market.
