Difference between different types of whisky?
Whisky drinkers, clue me in! What's the difference between one whisky and another regarding taste, smell, naming, etc?
I am not a whisky drinker but I drink other spirits, mostly rum and vodka, and with words like scotch, bourbon, blended malt, and things like that being thrown around, I've become curious as to what they all mean and what the difference between one type of whisky and another is.
I have tried Johnnie Walker and Jack Daniels and for the life of me could not tell you what either one is (although I happen to know that Walker is scotch because I was informed by a friend).
Finally, if you could, I'd like to hear your opinions as to what types and brands of whisky are best.
Cheers!
Well if you cannot tell the difference between scotch and bourbon, explaining will not likely help. Southern sipping bourbon aka whiskey is my personal favorite. Scotch or irish whiskey is quite different and "dry". It is nothing like Jack Daniel's (sweet and orange flavored). My favorite is Maker's Mark and if I cannot find a good southern whiskey not adulterated with lots of additional perfumey flavors (like those in Jack Daniel's and Southern Comfort (skunk??)), then I will go for a "club" whiskey like a Canadian Club.

It all comes down to personal preference and I can easily pick out each main category if not get quite a good chance on the brand name.
