Black & White Scotch WhiskyBlack & White is a brand of blended Scotch whisky that is famous for its logo of two Scottish terriers - a black Scottish terrier, and a West Highland White terrier.
Whisky (or whiskey) is an alcoholic beverage distilled from grain, often including malt, which has then been aged in wooden barrels. Whisky is drunk straight, with water or ice, or mixed with other spirits (see cocktails) Whisky is sold in several styles. Malt whisky consists of whisky made from 100 percent malted grain, and malt whisky from one distillery, rather than blended, is called single malt. The grains used to make malt whisky include barley in Scotland, Ireland, Canada, and the United States; rye in Canada and the United States; and corn in the United States (Bourbon Whiskey, by law, must be at least 51% corn in its mash). Pure pot still whiskey is made in Ireland from a combination of malted and unmalted barley. Various types of straight whiskey, such as Rye whiskey, Tennessee whiskey, and Bourbon are produced in the U.S. which are aged in new, charred, oak barrels. Blended whisky is made from a combination of any of the above whiskies with the similar grain whisky or neutral grain spirits, which are much less expensive to produce than the other types of whisky.
