A slight error in your statement there the correct statement should read
"There's only 1 type of whisky in my book:
Single Malt whisky
Everything else.. well i wouldnt even let my dogs drink "

I believe its spelled "Uisce" (Gaelic for water) having completed 14 years of schooling in my native language, I can bearly say my own name so don't take it as gospel.

Just because this thread is already polluted: http://www.die-marine.de/_deutsch/sonstiges/alpha_e.html
Especially for the NATO-Alphabet guy: It is spelled WhiskEy and not Whisky. I have been in the Airforce to long to let this slip =p

Whisky comes from the Gaelic uisge/uisce beatha (IPA: [ɪʃkʲə bʲahə]) meaning "water of life", possibly modelled on the Latin phrase aqua vitae. The spelling whisky (plural whiskies) is generally used for whiskies distilled in Scotland, Wales, Canada, and Japan, while whiskey is used for the spirits distilled in Ireland. A 1968 directive of the ATF specifies "whisky" as the official U.S. spelling, but allows labeling as "whiskey" in deference to tradition; most U.S. producers still use the latter spelling.
A mnemonic used to remember which spelling is used is that "Ireland" and "United States" have at least one "e" in their names, while "Scotland", "Canada" and "Japan" do not. International law reserves the term "Scotch whisky" to those whiskies produced in Scotland, thus preventing foreign whisky producers from using the terms Scots, Scotch, Scotland, or Scottish. Similar conventions exist for "Irish whiskey", "Canadian whisky", and "bourbon whiskey".
Outside of Scotland the abbreviated term "Scotch" is usually used for "Scotch whisky". In Scotland the term "whisky" almost always refers to "Scotch whisky", and "Scotch" is rarely used by itself.

Edited by: Babs Johnson on 12/02/2007 06:54:16 We call scotch whiskey "scotch" to distinguish it from bourbon whiskeys, primarily from Kentucky and Tennessee.
As a matter of fact, in my part of the US, we never refer to any of it as "whiskey" but rather by its variety, bourbon or scotch.

Edited by: Kilostream on 18/02/2007 10:20:05 The Scots make Whisky, the Irish make Whiskey, the guys that wrote the phonetic alphabet had to pick one, so they went for the one with the 'e' in it.
Anyway, what's all the fuss about the presence of the 'e'? Whisky and Whiskey BOTH taste like burning, turn your eyeballs inside out and are effective when used as paintstripper.
