Yes, I am, but in the U.S. "whiskey" (or "whisky") can refer to several different categories, some of which I actually like.
ooooh, no, corn whiskey IS undrinkable, as unpalatable as Gin.
Now being Canadian I do like rye whisky. The better brands only, Crown Royal for eg..
"5 Star" was my Grandfather's favorite and there are few harsher tasting liquids. he liked it (he said) because it had "bite" but the rest of the family thinks he liked it because it was cheap!
Architect, I was at a Burn's supper this year and of course the only beverages at the bar were single malt barely whiskies. ( well, and one brand of chilled, undistilled barley mash for those disinclined to partake of whisky) I sampled 3 (my health precludes more than 3 at a sitting), Aberlour, Lagavulin and Glendronach.
The first I'd had before, the second because I do like Islay whisky now and then (others have described it as sufficient for sterilizing medical instruments) and the last because I'd never had it before. The dinner fee was free but one had to buy $20 worth of tickets for prize draws. That is where one my bottles of Glen Fiddich came from.
Thanks for the info on red label. The old lady knew I liked "scotch" whiskey , went to the liquor store and bought the one with the brightest label I think.
Oh yeah, hurricanes........... from the Dr.Judy Woods page linked to above
bolding mine
they did not report seeing a hurricane that was just out of there camera shot
Well I suppose no one really expects an engineer to have a great grasp of the written English language.
