Facts About Whiskey (or Is It Whisky?) for World Whiskey Day
It’s not a spelling mistake! Whiskey is usually spelled with an “e” in Ireland and the United States, and spelled without the “e” in Scotland and Canada. While there are many nuances to whiskey, the variations are mostly based on the type of grain used in the distilling process and the methods used in the place it was produced. For example, bourbon is a form of whiskey.
Regardless, whiskey has been around in some form since monks in Scotland first created it around the year 1100. The first written reference to the drink dates to 1405, in the family journal of a Scottish clan. Scottish immigrants brought whisky (their spelling!) to the American colonies in the 1600s. And whiskey famously played a part in early American history as the product at the heart of the Whiskey Rebellion in 1791.
About World Whiskey Day
World Whiskey Day was founded in 2012 by Blair Bowman while studying at the University of Aberdeen. Officially recognized by the Scottish Parliament in 2014, it is now celebrated globally by hundreds of thousands of whiskey drinkers each year on the third Saturday in May.
