“Don’t you drink? I notice you speak slightingly of the
bottle. I have drunk since I was fifteen and few things
have given me more pleasure. When you work hard all day
with your head and know you must work again the next
day what else can change your ideas and make them run on a different plane like whisky? When you are cold and wet what else can warm you?”
Ernest Hemingway

American Whiskey
AMERICAN WHISKEY IS PRIMARILY MADE FROM A MASH OF CEREAL GRAIN. THE TWO MAIN TYPES OF AMERICAN WHISKEY ARE BOURBON AND RYE. THESE WHISKIES CAN BE MADE ANYWHERE IN THE U.S. HOWEVER KENTUCKY IS THE BY FAR THE LARGEST PRODUCER OF BOURBON. JACK DANIELS IS AN EXAMPLE OF AN AMERICAN WHISKEY THAT IS NOT BOURBON OR RYE.
BOURBON IS GOVERNED BY 5 MAIN LAWS
1. PRODUCED IN THE U.S.
2. MADE FROM A GRAIN MIXTURE OF AT LEAST 51% CORN.
3. AGED IN NEW CHARRED OAK BARRELS.
4. ENTER THE BARREL AT 125 PROOF.
5. BOTTLED AT 80 PROOF OR MORE.
RYE HAS ALMOST IDENTICAL RULES; THE MAIN ONE BEING THAT RYE MUST BE MADE FROM A GRAIN MIXTURE OF 51% RYE. GENERALLY SPICIER AND LESS SWEET THAN BOURBON.

Scotch Whiskey
GENERALLY DISTILLED TWICE AND MUST BE MADE IN SCOTLAND AND MATURED FOR A MINIMUM OF THREE YEARS. THE AGE STATEMENT ON A BOTTLE MUST REFLECT THE AGE OF THE YOUNGEST WHISKY IN THAT BOTTLE. THE DISTINCTIVE SMOKY FLAVOR IS DUE TO THE USE OF PEAT SMOKE TO TREAT THE MALT. SCOTCH MALT WHISKIES ARE DIVIDED INTO 5 MAIN REGIONS: HIGHLAND, LOWLAND, ISLAY, SPEYSIDE & CAMPBELTOWN.
