Whiskey. with an e. Without an e it's scotch, with the e it's (in most cases) bourbon, or irish whiskey. Or Canadian Rye whiskey. I'm not a great fan of bourbon anyway. And comparing a fine scotch to a cheap bourbon is, well, like comparing apples to oranges.
Zingoleb:
the difference in spelling isn't because of any difference in the alcohol, just a difference in where it's coming from.
ankhtahr:
But it's produced in very different ways. The base materials differ as well.
Usually cheap bourbon has only matured one year, while most scotchs start at 10 years.
Zingoleb:
but that's not the distinction whisky/whiskey makes. http://www.thekitchn.com/whiskey-vs-whisky-whats-the-di-100476
