Le dernier stade est l'assemblage qui vise à conférer à chaque marque une saveur distincte à qualité constante. D'un pays à l'autre, le procédé est radicalement différent. En Écosse, le blending consiste à marier des whiskies de malt et des whiskies de grain provenant de plusieurs distilleries, alors qu'en Irlande l'assemblage est un mélange de plusieurs whiskeys provenant tous de la même distillerie, mais d'âge, de tonneaux et de lieux de mûrissement différents. 1, record 1, French, - blended%20whiskey
