Bourbon, Canadian, and Tennessee Whiskey

Bourbon (American whiskey) is made using between 51 and 79 percent corn. The remainder is made up of barley, wheat and/or rye. The spirit is aged in new charred oak barrels, usually between two and four years. Bourbon is required to be at least 80 proof / 40 percent ABV.

Scotch Whisky

Scotch whisky is a whisky produced at a distillery in Scotland, and must adhere to rules set forth in the Scotch Whisky Order of 1990. Scotch must be distilled from only two ingredients: water and malted barley. Fermentation can only be obtained using yeast. The spirit must then be distilled to a strength of less than 94.8 percent by ABV (alcohol by volume) so it retains the flavor of the raw materials.

No other substance can be added to Scotch when it is bottled except of water and caramel spirit. The four categories of Scotch are: single malt, vatted malt, blended and single grain. Scotch must have been aged for at least three years, with labels signifying the youngest scotch barrels used in the mix or blend. Most Scotch drinkers agree that good scotch must be at least 10 years in the barrel to obtain desired results.

Canadian whiskey is created with grains, barley, wheat and rye, but no law that requires any certain grain be dominant in the mix. The Canadian Government requires the spirit be aged at least three years, although most spend between six and eight years in the barrel before being bottled.

Tennessee whiskey is at least 51 percent corn with barley, wheat and/or rye making up the remainder. Tennessee whisky must then be filtered through maple charcoal, before aging begins, typically lasting at least four years.
