its funny that only 3/8 people dont know how to spell whiskey
This blasphemy makes me cry. Whiskey is not the "correct" spelling... There are two separate terms and they can mean quite different things.

Time to put on my education hat. In 1986 the ATF released a bulletin in which they revealed that all american "whiskey" was in fact "whisky", but to prevent everyone's hat getting in a twist, they allowed them to continue using the spelling of "whiskey". In 2009 the NY times made at attempt to spell american whiskey the correct federal way but received so many complaints they returned to using the E in their spelling of whiskey. The term is now accepted as a indicator of where the whisky is from, even though it is wrong  Smile
