One is Blended Irish and the other is Blended Scotch. My preference are the Glenlivet, Tamnavulin, GlenMorangie (not the high end) - the single malts.Note - There are single malts and single grain whiskeys. Single malt whiskeys are blended too. Whiskeys from several casks and batches are mixed to get a desired flavour. The word "Single" only means that it comes from a single distillery. Malt word comes from the fact that because it's made from barley.Single grain implies it's from a single distillery but does not have to be produced from malted barley.  Other cereals such as wheat, corn or rye could all be used, and they can be malted or un-malted. These are blended too.Also the technique how these two are distilled are different. If you visit a distillery in Scotland they will explain details on their tour.When the world "blended" is used it's a product with blended with whiskeys from several distilleries.</blockquote>
