Originally posted by Frank BurnsNo, he isn't splitting hairs. There is a real difference between whisky (Scotch process) and whiskey (Irish process). Both can result in a good tipple if done right, although my personal preference is usually for Scotch. Won't turn down a Paddy's, though.
You are splitting hairs brother. We are all from different continents and countries and the spelling differs.
i.e. centre vs center
My best? Variety. There are so many good whiskies, so many good wines, so many good ales and Belgian beers, that it's silly to limit yourself to a single one.
