The whiskey world is built on legacy. Scotch distilleries tout 200-plus-year histories, and stateside producers find roots in the colonial era. Individual batches can be categorized by age statements with the prevailing idea that older whiskies are better. But if you’re still shopping for whiskey based on age statements alone, you’re doing it wrong. Age is one thing, but it’s maturity that really matters.
Most whiskies are required to spend a minimum amount of time aging. For Scotch, Irish, and Canadian varieties, that’s three years, whereas the mandate for Japanese whiskies and ryes sits at two. The outlier is bourbon, which can be any age as long as it’s matured in charred, new oak barrels. Most distilleries choose to exceed these time frames by a few years or sometimes longer, depending on flavors they want to develop.
