Does exactly what it says on the tin. Some of the nonsense contained herein may be very loosely related to The Sisters of Mercy, but I wouldn't bet your PayPal account on it. In keeping with the internet's general theme nothing written here should be taken as Gospel: over three quarters of it is utter gibberish, and most of the forum's denizens haven't spoken to another human being face-to-face for decades. Don't worry your pretty little heads about it. Above all else, remember this: You don't have to stay forever. I will understand.

Whiskey is a different spelling of whisky, associated to products from Ireland or USA.
The change in spelling was to differ Irish / American whiskey from Scotch whisky.
One learns everyday eh
(I'm very strict in the use of whisky/whiskey, that's all...)

Under federal regulations, bourbon is a whiskey distilled at not exceeding 160 proof from a fermented mash of not less that 51% corn. The balance of the mash may be any other grain but is generally rye and barley malt. Also the product must be stored in new charred oak barrels. Bourbon includes both straights and bonds.

"There are 3 main ingredients for making Laphroaig - Barley, Water, and Yeast, but the secret ingredient is the People."
And then I saw...'The People':
And THEY'RE IN THERE somewhere

Oh, and:
"Apparently during the American prohibition on alcohol they stopped importation of Scotch, but some of the most phenolic stuff (ie Laphroaig) managed to slip through the net: It was imported as a *disinfectant*. The customs authorities must have thought that nothing smelling like Laph. could be drunk for any other than medical purposes..."
