Scotland is rubbish at everything except Whisky

No wonder there was no vote for independence - the spongers just want to keep on sponging.

Whit???

Would usually go for one of the "heavy" Islays: Lagavulin, Laphroaig or Ardmore, but after a particularly good St David's Day have become quite partial to Penderyn

Bourbon is a whisky made from Rye as opposed to Barley.

The first time a contractor has come up with something technical that is actually interesting

Whisky if it is Scottish, else whiskey, Shirley.

The Grub Club are very well aware of Yamazki (as a result I have a bottle in my kitchen) not tried the Sherry Cask one but the 12 y/o is very pleasing!

WHS.

I usually go for Lagavulin but I also have a bottle of Penderyn on the go. It's incredibly smooth.

There are also excellent brandies, rums, vodkas. Bourbon and Single Malt Whisky are different drinks, surely.

By definition, no. Drinks are classified according to rules. Both use grain mash, but differ in the grain used and other details (alcohol, aging) and can only be strictly defined as Scotch or Bourbon based on origin, much like Champagne. Also, Bourbon is not the same as Rye. Bourbon is made primarily from corn (at least 51%).
