Understanding Whiskey Varieties

Before diving into gift ideas, it's important to understand the difference between some popular whiskey types. Many people often wonder about scotch vs bourbon, and here's a brief rundown:

  • Bourbon: This American whiskey must be made from at least 51% corn and is typically sweeter with notes of vanilla and caramel. It's a key ingredient in many bourbon cocktails like the classic Old Fashioned.
  • Scotch: Made primarily from malted barley, scotch whiskey offers a diverse range of flavors, often peaty and smoky. Learn more about Scotch Whiskey: Icons and Innovators.
