American Single Malt Whiskey Commission
The American Single Malt Whiskey Commission is a group dedicated to promoting and defining what qualifies as American single malt whiskey. They work to establish standards that distinguish these whiskeys—made from 100% malted barley and distilled in the U.S.—to ensure consistency, quality, and recognition within the industry and among consumers. Their efforts help protect the integrity of American single malts, support producers, and educate the public about this specific style of whiskey, ensuring it gains the same respect and clarity as its Scottish counterpart.
