Frank Szmulowicz, Ph. D. Aug 19, 2019:
Vatting is when a single distillery combines multiple barrels of their whiskey together in a vat in order to achieve a consistent brand flavor. When a whiskey is vatted, this is when things happen like filtering, proofing, taste testing, and the addition of E150 coloring if allowed by law.

The words vatted and blended used to mean the same thing and were used interchangeably. But in the modern whiskey world vatted means combining barrels from the same distillery, and blended means mixing whiskey barrels from different distilleries.
