As per UK laws a product sold as “single malt scotch whisky” must be made exclusively from malted barley. Must be distilled at one single distillery (that means no blending with whisky made from various distilleries) and must be aged for a minimum of 3 years. This law is followed globally by all manufacturers. The aging is done in wooden barrels. Since wood is a porous material some of the whisky is lost to evaporation. The word “angel’s share” is a humorous way of referring to the amount of whisky lost to evaporation.
