The name "Whisky/Whiskey" is derived from the anglicization of the classical Gaelic word uisce/uisge meaning "water" (now written as uisce in Irish Gaelic and uisge in Scottish Gaelic). Distilled alcohol was originally known in Latin as aqua vitae ("water of life"). This was translated into Classical Gaelic as Irish uisce beatha Scottish Gaelic: uisge beatha "water of life". Early forms of the word in English included uskebeaghe (1581), usquebaugh (1610), usquebath (1621), usquebae (1715).
The spelling whiskey is often used on Irish and American whiskeys, while all those produced in Scotland and other places around the world use whisky. Since the 1960s, American writers have increasingly used whiskey as the accepted spelling for aged grain spirits made in the US and whiskey for aged grain spirits made outside the US. However, some prominent American brands such as George Dickel, Makers Mark and Old Forester (all made by different companies) use the whiskey spelling on their labels.
Interesting fact: Whiskey does not age in the bottle, even if it ages after bottling, its taste does not change. However, the cost value can change as it becomes rarer - this is what investment whiskeys are derived from. Bottle age is the time it spent in the barrel between the distillation process and bottling. It is the barrel that affects the taste and chemical composition of whiskey.
Whiskey from Scotland, Ireland, USA and many other countries
Whiskey is certainly one of the most interesting spirits in the assortment. We try to break down this very complex range of products in more detail so that you dont lose track when you want to buy whiskey. Because of course there is an important difference between different types of whiskey such as Bourbon Whiskey and Scotch Whiskey. But it doesnt stop there, there are also very different whiskeys at deeper levels. And of course, there is not only American bourbon and Scotch whiskey, but also whiskey from many other countries. German whiskey is also new, of course. Lets start the review with the latest whiskeys and the best sellers. Then we will go deeper into the categories.
