Single malt Scotch is single malt whisky made in the country of Scotland, a part of the United Kingdom. For a whisky to qualify for this category, the whisky must have been distilled at a single distillery using a pot still distillation process and made from a mash of malted barley. As with any Scotch whisky, a single malt Scotch must be distilled in Scotland and matured in oak casks in Scotland for at least three years, although most single malts are matured longer.

To break down the terms in the name, Malt indicates that the whisky is distilled from malted barley. Malting is the process of soaking the grains in water for several days until it germinates. Single indicates that all the spirits in the bottle come from a single distillery.

Single malt Scotch whiskies are categorized into the following whisky-producing regions: Highland single malts, Island single malts, Speyside single malts, Islay single malts, Lowland single malts, and Campbelltown single malts.
