REGION: SCOTLAND “Scotch” only refers to Scottish whisky. The Scots also say they were the first to create whisky. Technically, as far as we can see, whisky does not seem to have been a recognized product in Scotland until after the Union, whereas the Irish were distilling spirits from malt at least as far back as 1590. There is also legend that says the Irish monks actually introduced whiskey to the Scots. Tastes: smoky (because it’s made from barley dried over peat fire. Cool story: the Scotch whisky scene was hugely influenced by the Act of Union in 1707 that combined England, Wales, and Scotland into the UK. The London government started taxing Scottish-made whisky (and cutting the taxes on English gin). Illicit distilling boomed. In Edinburgh there were apparently around 400 illegal stills and just eight with licenses A bunch of Scottish distilleries, particularly in the Highlands, started as illicit operations. Examples: Macallan, Glenlivet, Talisker, Oban, Highland Park. 06 WHISKY EDITION November 2012
REGION: CANADA Canadian whiskey is distilled any number of times using malted rye as the grain. “Canadian Club” was a massively popular whiskey during the ‘50s. It’s the only North American distiller to have been granted a Royal Warrant (now withdrawn). It’s also the whiskey you see Don Draper always drinking in Mad Men. Seagram’s and Sons is also a popular Canadian whiskey. So is Crown Royal. REGION: SOUTH AFRICA The James Sedgwick Distillery in Wellington, Western Cape, was established in 1886 and is one of 2 South African Whiskies. Three Ships is a blend of South African and Scotch Whiskies and is highly rated amongst local whisky connoisseurs. The other South African Whisky is Bain’s Cape Mountain Whisky. This was the first commercially single grain whisky produced in South Africa, using the finest South African grain which is milled, mashed, distilled and matured at The James Sedgwick Distillery.
