They are. Or at least the Scots are. Seems like the Irish care enough not to even mention it.Originally posted by Zigenare View PostI'm sure the Irish and Scots distilleries are in total agreement with you.
Scotch Whisky FAQs
Cretin.Which spelling is correct - whisky or whiskey?
Production and maturations of whisk(e)y is governed by law, not the word.

He knows why he was wrong. Judging by your post you're in agreement.Originally posted by darmstadt View PostAlthough you haven't told why he is wrong, so come on then, step up to the plate and give us the benefit of your superior intellect...
Perhaps this will provide a clue.Last edited by Zigenare; 28 August 2019, 08:19.

The answer is simple, if you know nothing about a topic then don't post. Otherwise your ignorance is there for all to see.

Careful you don’t slip over, with that thin skin you’ve got. You might get a scratch.

Can confirm Nikka, it sits as whisky alongside a Balvenie and Glendronach on my shelf.Originally posted by WTFH View PostSuntory (the people behind Chita, Hibiki and Yamazaki) spell it Whisky. Yamazaki 18 is one of the finest whiskies I have ever tasted.
Nikka also spell theirs the Scottish way.
USA choose the Irish spelling.
Unlike the Red Spot and 15-yo Temple Bar (2018 best Irish Single Malt) whiskey that sits next to them.
I prefer to care about what’s in the bottle though, than the spelling outside of it. ;-)

So still stuck being a grammar Nazi then, with no real opinion.Originally posted by Zigenare View PostThe point is as follows, the Scots produce "Whisky". The Irish produce "Whiskey". And you spout copious amounts of tulipe.
Are you going to compound your mistake further by suggesting that they are the same thing?
