LittleKing:
Oh, I wasn't aware there was a distinction between whiskey/whisky either. My poison was of the Irish variety - Bushmills and then Jameson I believe.
Zingoleb:
there isn't, is what I'm saying. :-P it's just a different spelling - it's the difference between color and colour. they're both correct, they're just regional spellings.
LittleKing:
^ Ha, should have read your link before commenting :-P Makes sense though!
ankhtahr:
Yes, they are regional spellings. The producers who write "Whiskey" on their bottles are from Ireland and the US, the producers who write "Whisky" on their bottles are not. And as the products differ from region to region, the spelling is important.
catflea:
To me, the e, or lack of, is important. Whiskey is for mixing, be it in a cocktail or with coke wheras Whisky is to be savoured on the rocks or with a small splash of water.
