Whisky quote

Quotable Quote

"...the best whisky is made in Scotland. They call it "whisky," because to their way of thinking, there aren't other varieties. The most publicized stuff is pure malt whisky, which comes from barley. But you can distill Scotch from all kinds of grains. The thing that makes it Scotch, the thing that gives it the distinctive Scottish whisky flavor, is curing with Scottish mud. They call it "peat," which sounds better...

WHISKEY

For pre-op transsexuals, and other people who have penises, but are nevertheless girls, there's Canadian whiskey. This is like real whisky, but without any of that icky whisky flavor. It's almost always watered to 80 proof. So you won't have to worry about the effects of evil alcohol, either.

Irish whiskey, on the other hand, will transform even the most taciturn dullard into a poet. Sometimes, the poetry is good. The stories about the poets, and their drunken escapades, are better.

The whiskey of Ireland can have much the same aspect as Scotch. But most of them have a fruitier flavor, recalling apples and pears.

The Irish refer to their whiskey as "whiskey," also pretending that other varieties are aberrations. In this case, they fool no one."


From here

If you have an opinion on whiskey add a comment.
