    You need to look up the dictionary definitions of right and wrong.

    The debate has raged on for centuries but you’ve got 2 links which prove beyond all doubt that Whisky is Irish.

    As I said before, it was neither Scottish nor Irish.

    You need to learn to accept when you're wrong, especially when presented with evidence. Historical records prove that whisky is Irish. Distillation wasn't invented by the Irish, but whisky was.

    As long as Chester gets credit for inventing Wake Up Juice, then it’s all good

    Whisky is so good it was rebranded Scotch to market it in the states.
    Whiskey has not been rebranded due to its originality and more delectable taste for the pallet. Less smokey and more smooth and light because the Irish distill 3 times. The Scots took the lazy option and distilled twice. The lazy option of the Gaelic language was also adopted by the Scots leaving the E out from the proper spelling of Whiskey! Anyway Jameson's is the nicest of them all.:fear:

    Funnily enough though, the founder of Jameson’s was actually a Scot.

    She has no control whatsoever. Died when she was about 43.
