History & spelling Whisk(e)y has a fascinating history dating back over 2000 years. The word whisk(e)y derives from the Gaelic uisge, a shortened version of uisge beatha meaning water of life, also known as aqua vitae in Latin. Whisk(e)y was originally used as a medicine for both internal anaesthetic use and as an external antibiotic. Distilling techniques were brought to Ireland and Scotland sometime between 1100 and 1300 by monks. Since wine was not easily obtained in these countries, barley beer was distilled into liquor which in turn became whisky. Today, whisky is a global spirit full of diversity and flavour. The spelling of whisky or whiskey differs based on where the spirit is produced. Traditionally American and Irish producers prefer whiskey with an e, and in Scotland, Wales, Canada, and Japan they prefer whisky without an e. So why two different spellings? Going back to around 1870, Scotch whisky was deemed to be of very poor quality. When exporting their products, American and Irish producers wanted to differentiate themselves from this and so they added the e to mark the distinction between the two. Today, Scotch whisky is one of the world s finest spirits, but still keeps the original spelling. In 1968 the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives issued a directive that states the correct spelling in the United States is whisky. However most, but not all American producers, use the historic spelling whiskey. A handy little trick to remember this easily is that major producing countries with an e in their name spell it whiskey (America and Ireland). Those without the e spell it whisky (Scotland, Canada and Japan). 4

Scotland Whilst many countries now produce whisky, only whiskies produced in Scotland can be called Scotch. Malt Whisky - Whisky producing regions are as diverse as the wine regions of France; their location, climate and crafts of the region impart certain characteristics on the flavour profiles of malts. Highlands - By far the largest region, the Highlands has wide variations in flavours; the west coast has maritime influences with central areas driven by heathery, honey flavours. Lowlands - South of an imaginary line running between Dundee and Greenock, there is a softer landscape to the Highlands is which reflected in colour and flavour. Little or no peat is used here, resulting generally in a light, floral flavour profile. Islands - Dominated by the island of Islay and its eight distilleries, the area is rugged, windswept and barren, generally producing peaty maritime aromas. Speyside - Set in the Highlands between Aberdeen and Inverness, the classic Speyside flavours are honey, vanilla and fresh fruit. Blended Scotch - Made up of grain whisky and a variety of single malts. Grain based whiskies were once perceived as a cheap alternative to single malts but we now know blending requires an immense skill. It is likely that newer drinkers introduced to whisky will try blends first.

Whisky & food Bespoke food and drink matching is becoming more popular across all drinks categories and has expanded from wine into beer and beyond. Pre-conceptions that whisky is too intense and strong in alcohol to work with food are being broken down and increasingly outlets pair whiskies with specific foods to enhance the flavour of both. So whilst in the past whisky and food matching has been confined to Burns Night suppers or Scottish themed menus, it is more frequently appearing on food menus as a pairing suggestion. Whisky offers a vast array of different flavours and styles from smoke, spice, peat, floral, vanilla, dried fruit and many more which can work with a variety of food types. The key is to ensure that the whisky should not overpower the food.

Blended Scotch Scotland Blended is the UK s top selling whisky style with over 418 million spent over the last year. *

Famous Grouse Matthew Gloag established his much-respected family grocers in 1800.

America Whiskey arrived on the American continent with the Irish and Scottish immigrants they were forced to adapt it in many ways including the use of new raw materials. Over the years, a new kind of whiskey gradually evolved. Today, there are few (if any) similarities left between American whiskey and its cousins, the Scottish and Irish whiskies. For example, no smoke is used to dry the corn or rye. Because of this, it often has a fuller, stronger and sweeter taste than its European counterparts. The most common varieties within North American whiskies are: Bourbon - America s national spirit. There must be at least 51% corn in the selection of grains for distillation with no caramel colouring. Tennessee - these are essentially bourbons which undergo the Lincoln County Process, developed by the famous Jack Daniel s. This involves filtering the spirit through sugar maple charcoal. Rye - made with a mash bill that must feature at least 51% rye. The result of this is a more spicy whiskey with lots of complexity. Synonymous with the cocktail, the classic whiskey mixes are all based around the rustic spirit; the Manhattan, the Old Fashioned, the Sazerac. Less common are: Wheat - these differ from bourbon in the mash bill. It is distilled from a minimum of 51% wheat. There is only one straight wheat whiskey in America: Bernheim. The wheat content offers a sweet, mellow character. Corn - distilled from a mash bill of at least 80% corn - usually not aged in new charred oak barrels (the custom with bourbon) therefore not referred to as straight whiskey. Over 104,000 more bottles of American whiskey were consumed in the on-trade over the last 12 months than in the previous year. *

Wild Turkey The original Ripy family distillery was founded in 1869 on Wild Turkey Hill in Lawrenceburg, Kentucky, USA. The now famous Wild Turkey brand name came about in 1940 when distillery executive Thomas McCarthy took a few warehouse samples on a wild turkey hunting trip with a group of friends. The next year his friends asked him for some of that wild turkey whiskey and a brand was born. Wild Turkey uses authentic, time-honoured methods to produce a genuine bourbon with maximum flavour. 101 81 Strength: 40.5% JDE: 00026343 An 81-proof bourbon aged between six and eight years, crafted to achieve a soft and mellow tone with an intense oak and char finish.

At 101 proof, no other bourbon in its class can match it for force or finesse.

Jack Daniel s Every drop of Jack Daniel s ever made has been made in Lynchburg, Tennessee. Mr Jack Daniel chose to locate the distillery here originally because of the cave spring which provides cool, pure, iron-free spring water. Charcoal mellowing is what makes Jack Daniel s a Tennessee whiskey and distinguishes it from other American whiskies. This unique process takes time as each drop passes through ten feet of sugar maple charcoal. Jack Daniel s whiskey is matured in handmade toasted oak barrels not just a container, they are an ingredient the entire colour and some of the flavour are drawn from them.

Rest of the World As consumers are drinking more whisk(e)y and becoming more adventurous, other countries have entered the market place using innovative techniques and challenging the traditional methods of production and maturation. We have selected a few of the key producing countries: Japan - Japanese malt whisky is based on the Scotch model being double-distilled in pot stills. However, they have made certain innovations of their own, such as maturing their whiskies in rare, slow-growing Japanese oak. Japanese whisky is an interesting comparison between Scotch and Bourbon, Scotch in style but matured in temperature conditions closer to Kentucky. Ireland - It is argued that whiskey was invented in Ireland and the idea taken to Scotland in medieval times. There is evidence of this migration but the true origin of whisk(e)y remains unclear. Ireland s distilling industry is quite different to Scotland s, with a handful of distilleries producing the many different Irish brands according to different recipes. Wales - Penderyn is the only distillery in Wales and was established in 1999 in the foothills of the Brecon Beacons. Producing just one cask a day, Penderyn produces smooth, easy-drinking malt whiskies. A single still is used in production, making this different from most Scottish and Irish counterparts. Irish whiskey is worth over 54 million in the UK on-trade, up 7.6% on last year. Whiskies from other countries including Japan are growing by 50% in volume terms year on year. *
