When it comes to Scotch, the barrels used for aging are typically made from oak, which has a high tannin content. This tannin content helps to mellow and smooth out the whisky, as well as imparting flavors and aromas that are unique to each barrel. The size of the barrel, as well as the type of wood used, will also affect the flavor and aroma of the whisky.

While there are many similarities between Scotch, bourbon, and other types of whiskey, there are also many differences in the production process and the resulting flavors of these beverages.
