Whisk(e)y Winter, pt. 1: Whiskey with an E The Cask and the Curious

Welcome to our first episode of Whisk(e)y Winter!

What is up with the different spellings of whisk(e)y? Well, it’s not nearly as clear as you’d think.

We’re starting our few weeks’ tour in America, where Bourbons and Tennessee whisk(e)ys abound. Next week, we’re off to Scotland. And that’s not the end of the tour…

Some tasty examples from Fred and Kerry’s collection. As you can see, using Whiskey vs Whisky in the USA isn’t really a matter of location.
