please pick a spelling. whisky, or whiskey. whisk(e)y is unacceptable

scotch is "whisky," american stuff is "whiskey." both apply to this thread.

whiskey

[/ QUOTE ]

"The spelling whisky (plural whiskies) is generally used for those distilled in Scotland, Canada, and Japan, while whiskey (with an e; plural whiskeys) is used for the spirits distilled in Ireland and the United States; however, there are exceptions. Kentucky, for example, usually spells its produce "whisky"]."
