Ahh my friend you have asked a very good question.

To my knowledge the only whisky(no e) is made in

Scotland: Scotch Whisky (made from malted barley and usually fired with peat during malting process but not always)

and

Canada: Canadian Whisky(can be blended like Crown usually sweeter)

I think maybe Japan calls theirs Whisky too following the Scottish tradition. DAMN good whisky too!

Whiskey (with the e) refers to:

The Irish: Irish Whiskey (usually made from malted barley but not peated)
American: Straight Whiskey (can be made with any grain bill)
Kentucky: Bourbon Whiskey (must be aged at least 4 years charred oak barrels also has to be at least 50% corn I think)

Haven't read the US liquor laws in a while.


My goal is to some day be the person my dog thinks I am
