What is whisky made of? Which country did he originally come from?

Whisky Whisky is an alcoholic beverage made from barley, rye, oats, wheat, corn and other grains by fermentation, distillation, aging and blending in oak barrels. The main producing countries are English-speaking countries.

Whiskey is the language of the Celts who lived in the highlands of Ireland and Scotland in ancient times. The ancient Irish called it VISAGE-BEATHA, and the ancient Scots called it VISAGE BAUGH. After thousands of years of change, it gradually evolved into whiskey. Different countries have different ways to write whisky. Ireland and the United States write whisky, while Scotland and Canada write whisky with different endings.

Broadly speaking, "whisky" is the general name of all distilled spirits made from grains. Although traditionally, many people think that whisky is brewed from barley, it is not. This situation is a bit like brandy. Although many people think that only distilled spirits made from grapes are called brandy, in fact, the word brandy refers to all distilled spirits made from fruits.

The definition of whisky itself is not very strict. Except that it is clearly stipulated that only grains/grains can be used as raw materials, sometimes whiskey that has just been distilled and is still in a new state is not much different from other neutral spirits (such as vodka and rum). Almost all kinds of whiskies need to be aged in oak barrels for a certain period of time before they can be bottled and sold, so we can list the aging process as a necessary process to make whiskey. In addition, another clear definition of whisky requires that the original flavor of grain can be preserved during distillation, which is different from vodka or western grain wine (such as Everclear) made of pure grain and filtered.

Apart from the above two points, there is no clear classification boundary for whisky. In contrast, some more detailed whisky classifications have very strict definitions and even classification regulations. This definition is similar to China's definition of liquor, and both belong to the same category, but the main components may be quite different.
