• Springbank: medium-peated and distilled 2 and a half times.• Hazelburn: non-peated and triple distilled.• Longrow: heavily-peated and distilled twice.

AMERICAN WHISKEY
American Whiskey doesn’t always fall into a specific category such as Tennessee whiskey. With the growing movement of craft distillers, expect to see more boundary-breaking whiskey in the near future.

BOURBON
Bourbon is made primarily from corn. The spirit got its name through a historical association with an area known as ‘Old Bourbon’ — now known as ‘Bourbon County’, Kentucky (named after the French House of Bourbon Royal Family). Despite its strong connection with Kentucky, bourbon can be made anywhere in the US.

This category has never been hotter. We can partially thank Jim Murray’s 2015 Whisky Bible which named Yamazaki Sherry Cask the ‘Worlds Best Whisky.’ Japanese whisky has strongly been influenced by Scottish methods and their scientific knowledge about production allows distilleries to create a wide range of different styles and flavors.

Until the late 1880s, cocktails were sipped through a hollowed out stalk of rye grass. One day, Washington resident Marvin Stone was sucking down his Mint Julep and it occurred to him that even paper would do a better job. He tightly wrapped several strips of paper around a pencil, then he removed the pencil and glued the papers into a sturdy cylindrical shape. This immediately caught on with drinkers around the country, and in 1888, the inventor patented a version made of paraffin-coated manila.

INDEPENDENT BOTTLERS
It has become customary in Scotland for distilleries to sell barrels of whisky to independent bottlers as a means of making additional income. Distilleries also pass on barrels of whisky to ensure consistency. If a particular flavour is notably different, it may be deemed uncharacteristic of the distillery and as such cannot be used in ‘official’ product bottlings. The following list represents various independent bottlings from their respective bottlers.

India's climate means more that water evaporates during the maturation process than in Scotland, so the A.B.V. rises.
